How to consume Banana, Date without glucose spikes
Combine with Protein
Pair your banana or date with a source of protein such as Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, or a handful of nuts. Protein slows down the absorption of sugar into your bloodstream.
Include Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats like avocado, chia seeds, or a small serving of nuts to your meal. Fats can also help slow down the release of sugar.
Eat with Fiber-Rich Foods
Pair your fruit with high-fiber foods like oats, whole grain bread, or a small serving of legumes. Fiber helps to moderate blood sugar spikes.
Portion Control
Limit your intake to a small serving. For example, eat half a banana instead of a whole one, or just a couple of dates.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Proper hydration can help maintain stable blood glucose levels.
Eat Fruits with a Meal
Don’t eat bananas or dates on an empty stomach. Integrate them into a balanced meal that includes protein, fats, and fiber.
Choose Less Ripe Bananas
Opt for less ripe (greener) bananas as they contain less sugar compared to ripe ones.
Monitor Your Intake Timing
Consume these fruits at a time of day when you are more active, such as in the morning or before a workout, so your body utilizes the sugar more efficiently.
Add Apple Cider Vinegar
Include a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water before consuming your fruit. This can help improve your insulin sensitivity.
Exercise Post-Meal
Engage in light exercise such as a short walk after eating bananas or dates. Physical activity helps lower blood sugar levels.

The concept of using CGM to guide your training and food plan is brilliant. The app is also very well laid out.
