How to consume Strawberry Smoothie without glucose spikes
Add Protein
Include a scoop of protein powder or Greek yogurt in your strawberry smoothie. Protein can help slow down the absorption of sugars.
Include Healthy Fats
Add a small amount of avocado, chia seeds, or almond butter to your smoothie. These healthy fats can help reduce the spike in blood glucose.
Use a Fiber Supplement
Incorporate a fiber supplement like psyllium husk or ground flaxseed into your smoothie. Fiber can help regulate blood sugar levels.
Opt for Unsweetened Base
Use unsweetened almond milk, coconut milk, or water instead of sweetened milk or juice as the liquid base for your smoothie.
Add Leafy Greens
Blend in some spinach or kale. These greens are low in sugars and can add fiber, reducing the impact on your blood glucose levels.
Limit Portion Size
Keep your smoothie serving size moderate. Overconsumption can lead to higher sugar intake, causing a glucose spike.
Include Berries
Add a small amount of other low-sugar berries like blueberries or raspberries alongside strawberries. This can help balance the sugar content.
Consume with a Meal
Enjoy your smoothie as part of a balanced meal that includes protein, fat, and fiber. This can help slow down the absorption of sugars.
Monitor Sweeteners
Avoid adding extra sugars or high-sugar fruits. If extra sweetness is needed, use a small amount of a low-calorie sweetener like stevia.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Proper hydration can help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

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