How to consume Smoothie with oats without glucose spikes
Add Leafy Greens
Incorporate spinach or kale into your smoothie. These vegetables are low in carbs and can help stabilize your blood sugar levels.
Use Berries
Opt for berries like strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries instead of higher-sugar fruits. They provide natural sweetness without causing a large glucose spike.
Include Protein
Add a scoop of protein powder, Greek yogurt, or a handful of nuts like almonds or walnuts. Protein can help slow the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.
Healthy Fats
Mix in a tablespoon of chia seeds, flaxseeds, or a small amount of avocado. Healthy fats can help moderate your blood sugar response.
Choose Steel-Cut Oats
If you’re using oats, prefer steel-cut oats over instant oats as they are less processed and have a slower impact on blood sugar.
Add Cinnamon
Sprinkle some cinnamon into your smoothie. Cinnamon can help improve insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar levels.
Use Unsweetened Almond Milk
Replace higher-sugar liquids like fruit juice with unsweetened almond milk or another low-carb milk alternative.
Limit Portion Size
Be mindful of the portion size of your smoothie. Sometimes even healthy ingredients can cause a spike if consumed in large quantities.
Include Fiber
Add a fiber supplement like psyllium husk or ground flaxseed. Extra fiber can help slow the absorption of sugars and carbs.
Balance with Exercise
Consider a short walk or light activity after consuming your smoothie. Physical activity can help lower blood sugar levels post-meal.

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