How to consume Banana | Poha without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Add a source of protein such as Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, or a handful of nuts to your meal. Protein can help slow down the absorption of sugars.
Include Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats like a small portion of avocado, chia seeds, or a few almonds. Fats can also help in moderating blood sugar levels.
Eat Smaller Portions
Reduce the portion size of banana and poha. Eating smaller amounts can lead to a smaller glucose response.
Add Fiber
Include fiber-rich vegetables such as spinach, bell peppers, or cucumbers. Fiber can slow down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.
Drink Water
Drink plenty of water before and after your meal. Staying hydrated can help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.
Exercise
Engage in light physical activity such as walking for 10-15 minutes after your meal. Physical activity can help your body use up the glucose more efficiently.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to eat. Eating slowly can help your body better manage the glucose levels.
Choose Riper Bananas Wisely
Opt for less ripe bananas as they have a lower impact on blood sugar compared to fully ripe ones.
Add Whole Grains
If you can, mix in some whole grains like quinoa or oats with your poha. These grains are digested more slowly and can help in stabilizing blood sugar levels.
Monitor Your Blood Sugar
Keep track of your glucose levels to understand how different combinations and portion sizes affect you personally. This will help you make better food choices over time.

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

I didn't follow any fancy diet, yet managed to educate myself around food, and built a sustainable & healthy lifestyle.
