How to consume Banana | Protein Shake without glucose spikes
Pair with Fiber-Rich Foods
Include a serving of chia seeds or flaxseeds in your shake. These seeds are high in fiber, which can help slow down the absorption of sugars.
Add Healthy Fats
Mix in a tablespoon of almond butter or avocado. Healthy fats can help moderate the impact on your blood sugar levels.
Choose Low-Sugar Protein Powder
Opt for a protein powder that is low in sugar and contains a mix of protein sources such as whey and casein, which are digested at different rates.
Use a Smaller Banana
Use a smaller portion of banana or consider using just half a banana to reduce the overall fructose content.
Incorporate Leafy Greens
Add a handful of spinach or kale to your shake. These vegetables are low in sugars and can provide additional fiber and nutrients.
Include Nuts or Seeds
Consider adding a handful of nuts or seeds like almonds or walnuts to your shake. They can provide protein, fiber, and healthy fats.
Drink with Water
Use water or unsweetened almond milk as the liquid base for your shake instead of regular milk or juice, which can add extra sugars.
Monitor Portion Sizes
Be mindful of the portion sizes of all ingredients to keep overall sugar content in check.
Blend with Low-Sugar Fruits
If you need extra sweetness, add a small amount of berries like strawberries or blueberries, which are lower in sugars compared to bananas.
Spread Out Carbohydrate Intake
Instead of consuming the shake all at once, drink it slowly over a longer period to help prevent a rapid spike in glucose levels.

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