How to consume Chai | Green Tea without glucose spikes
Choose Whole Leaf Options
Opt for whole leaf Chai and Green Tea instead of pre-packaged or processed versions, as these often contain added sugars and flavorings that can contribute to glucose spikes.
Limit Sweeteners
Avoid adding sugar or high-calorie sweeteners to your tea. If needed, consider natural sweeteners like stevia or monk fruit, which have minimal effects on blood sugar levels.
Add Protein
Pair your tea with a source of protein such as a handful of nuts or a small serving of Greek yogurt. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels and slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Include healthy fats in your snack or meal when consuming tea. Foods like avocado slices, almonds, or chia seeds can help moderate blood sugar responses.
Serve with Whole Grains
If you enjoy having something with your tea, choose whole-grain options such as oats or whole-grain crackers. These have a slower digestion process, leading to steadier blood sugar levels.
Timing Matters
Drink your tea after a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach. This can help mitigate any potential blood sugar spikes.
Stay Hydrated
Ensure you’re well-hydrated, as dehydration can affect blood sugar levels. Drink water throughout the day to maintain stable glucose levels.
Try Cinnamon
Add a pinch of cinnamon to your Chai or Green Tea. Cinnamon is known to enhance insulin sensitivity and may help in managing blood sugar levels.
Mind Portion Sizes
Be mindful of the portion size of your Chai or Green Tea, especially if it is a spiced or flavored version, to control any additional caloric intake.
Regular Monitoring
Keep track of your blood sugar levels and observe how they react to different types of tea. This will help you identify which combinations work best for you personally.

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