How to consume Banana, Pomegranates without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Combine bananas and pomegranates with a good source of protein such as Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, or a handful of nuts like almonds or walnuts. Protein helps slow down the absorption of sugars.
Include Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats to your meal or snack, such as avocado, chia seeds, or a small serving of natural peanut butter. Healthy fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Eat with Fiber-Rich Foods
Incorporate high-fiber foods like oats, chia seeds, or flaxseeds when consuming these fruits. Fiber helps to slow down the digestion and absorption process.
Portion Control
Monitor the portion sizes of bananas and pomegranates. Opt for smaller servings to minimize the glucose spike.
Choose Less Ripe Bananas
Less ripe bananas have a lower impact on blood sugar levels compared to ripe ones. Choose bananas that are slightly green.
Hydrate Properly
Drink plenty of water before and after eating fruits. Proper hydration can help with the digestion process and potentially mitigate blood sugar spikes.
Consume as Part of a Meal
Instead of eating bananas and pomegranates alone, include them as part of a balanced meal with vegetables, lean protein, and whole grains.
Opt for Whole Grains
Pair fruits with whole grains such as quinoa, barley, or brown rice. These grains have slower digestion rates, helping to control blood sugar levels.
Add Cinnamon
Sprinkle some cinnamon on bananas or pomegranates. Cinnamon is known to help in stabilizing blood sugar levels.
Monitor Timing
Consume these fruits earlier in the day or as part of a pre- or post-workout snack, when your body is more likely to use the sugars for energy rather than storing them.

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.
