How to consume Bananas | Date without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Combine bananas or dates with a protein source, such as a handful of nuts, a spoonful of peanut butter, or a slice of cheese. This can help slow down the absorption of sugar into your bloodstream.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats like avocado, chia seeds, or a small portion of dark chocolate when consuming these fruits. Healthy fats can help moderate blood sugar levels.
Choose Smaller Portions
Opt for a smaller serving to reduce the overall intake of sugars. For instance, eat half a banana instead of a whole one.
Eat with Fiber-Rich Foods
Pair bananas or dates with fiber-rich foods like oatmeal, barley, or a side salad. Fiber can help slow the release of sugar into your bloodstream.
Consume with Balanced Meals
Include these fruits as part of a balanced meal that includes protein, fats, and complex carbohydrates. This can create a more gradual increase in blood sugar levels.
Opt for Less Ripe Bananas
Choose bananas that are slightly green rather than fully ripe, as they contain less sugar.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water alongside consuming these fruits. Staying hydrated can help your body process sugars more efficiently.
Monitor Timing
Consider eating bananas or dates as part of your breakfast or a post-workout snack when your body is more likely to utilize the sugars effectively.
Incorporate Physical Activity
Engage in light exercise, like a short walk, after consuming these fruits to help your body use the glucose more effectively.
Mindful Eating
Pay attention to how your body reacts to different foods and adjust your portions and combinations accordingly. Keeping a food diary can help track 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.

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