How to consume Banana | Protein Shake without glucose spikes
Add Fiber
Incorporate a scoop of fiber powder such as psyllium husk or ground flaxseeds into your shake to slow down glucose absorption.
Use a Low-Sugar Protein Powder
Choose a protein powder with minimal added sugars to prevent unnecessary glucose spikes.
Include Healthy Fats
Add a tablespoon of almond butter, chia seeds, or avocado to your shake. Healthy fats help to stabilize blood sugar levels.
Opt for a Smaller Banana
Use a smaller banana or only half a banana to reduce the overall sugar content of your shake.
Add Leafy Greens
Blend in a handful of spinach or kale. These greens add fiber and nutrients without significantly impacting the sugar content.
Cinnamon
Sprinkle some cinnamon into your shake. Cinnamon can help improve insulin sensitivity and reduce post-meal blood sugar levels.
Combine with a Balanced Meal
Consume your shake alongside a meal that includes protein, healthy fats, and fiber. This combination can help moderate the impact on your blood sugar.
Drink Slowly
Sip your shake slowly rather than drinking it all at once. This can help your body handle the sugars more effectively.
Exercise
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after consuming your shake. Exercise helps to lower blood sugar levels.
Monitor Portion Sizes
Be mindful of the quantity of each ingredient you use. Smaller portions can significantly reduce blood sugar spikes.

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