How to consume Coffee, Date without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Add a source of protein such as Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, or a handful of nuts when consuming dates. Protein can help slow down the absorption of sugars.
Include Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats like avocado or almond butter with your snack. Healthy fats can help moderate blood sugar levels by slowing digestion.
Opt for Fiber-Rich Foods
Pair dates with foods high in fiber, such as chia seeds or oatmeal. Fiber helps to stabilize blood sugar by slowing down the breakdown of carbohydrates.
Stay Hydrated
Drinking water before consuming foods with natural sugars can help moderate spikes by aiding in digestion.
Choose Black Coffee
If you're adding sugar or sweeteners to your coffee, try drinking it black or with a splash of unsweetened almond milk to reduce sugar intake.
Practice Portion Control
Limit the number of dates you consume at one time to reduce the overall sugar intake, as dates are naturally high in sugar.
Incorporate Physical Activity
A short walk or light exercise after consuming sugary foods can help your body use the glucose more efficiently and reduce spikes.
Add Cinnamon
Sprinkle a little cinnamon on your dates or coffee. Cinnamon has been shown to help improve insulin sensitivity.
Use Smaller Sips
Drink your coffee slowly over time rather than all at once to help your body process the caffeine and any sugars more gradually.
Monitor Consistency
Keep track of how your body responds to certain combinations of food and adjust accordingly for next time. Everyone's glucose response can vary.

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