How to consume Bananas, Poha without glucose spikes
Eat a Balanced Breakfast
Pair bananas and poha with a source of protein such as eggs or Greek yogurt to help moderate the glucose spike.
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Add nuts or seeds like almonds or chia seeds to your meal. Healthy fats can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Control Portion Sizes
Reduce the quantity of bananas and poha to smaller portions to minimize the glucose spike.
Choose Unripe Bananas
Opt for less ripe bananas which have a lower impact on blood sugar compared to fully ripe ones.
Add Fiber
Include foods like oats or barley, which can be mixed with poha, to increase the overall fiber content of your meal.
Hydrate Wisely
Drink water before eating bananas and poha. Staying hydrated can aid in better digestion and blood sugar control.
Exercise Regularly
Engage in light physical activity like walking after meals to help utilize the glucose more efficiently.
Limit Added Sugars
Avoid adding sugar or honey to your poha to prevent additional glucose spikes.
Spread Out Your Carbohydrates
Consume bananas and poha at different times of the day rather than together, to avoid a combined spike.
Monitor and Adjust

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