How to consume Banana Muffins without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Eat banana muffins with a source of protein, such as Greek yogurt, eggs, or a handful of nuts. This can help slow down the absorption of sugars into your bloodstream.
Add Fiber
Incorporate fiber-rich foods like chia seeds, flaxseeds, or oats into your banana muffin recipe or consume them alongside the muffins. This can help moderate blood sugar levels.
Choose Whole Grains
If you're baking your own muffins, use whole grain flour instead of refined flour. Whole grain options can help reduce blood sugar spikes.
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Pair your muffins with healthy fats like avocado, nut butter, or a small portion of cheese. Healthy fats can slow digestion and stabilize blood sugar levels.
Smaller Portions
Limit your portion size to reduce the overall impact on your blood sugar. Instead of eating a full muffin, try eating half and saving the rest for later.
Balance with Vegetables
Have a side of low-carb vegetables such as spinach, kale, or bell peppers with your banana muffins. The fiber in vegetables can help regulate your blood sugar.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water before and after eating banana muffins. Staying hydrated can help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.
Avoid Sugary Beverages
Do not accompany your banana muffins with sugary drinks like soda or fruit juice. Opt for water, herbal tea, or unsweetened beverages instead.
Active Break
Take a short walk or engage in light physical activity after eating the muffins. Physical activity helps your body use up excess glucose, preventing spikes.
Monitor and Adjust
Use a glucose monitor to track how your body responds to banana muffins. Adjust your portion size and combinations based on what works best for you.

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