How to consume tea (lemon flavored, instant powder, with added ascorbic acid, sweetened with sugar) without glucose spikes
Add Protein
Incorporate a source of protein such as a handful of nuts, a boiled egg, or a serving of Greek yogurt when drinking the tea. Protein helps stabilize blood sugar levels.
Use Less Sugar
Gradually reduce the amount of instant powder you use or switch to a version with less sugar. Alternatively, use a sugar substitute like stevia.
Increase Fiber Intake
Pair your tea with high-fiber foods such as chia seeds, flaxseeds, or a small apple to slow down sugar absorption.
Drink with a Meal
Consume the tea as part of a balanced meal that includes a mix of protein, healthy fats, and fiber-rich vegetables.
Consider Healthy Fats
Add a small portion of healthy fats to your diet like avocado slices, a few olives, or a spoonful of nut butter, which can help moderate blood sugar spikes.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Proper hydration can help regulate blood sugar levels.
Exercise Regularly
Engage in regular physical activity, such as a short walk after drinking the tea, to help your body manage blood sugar more effectively.
Use Fresh Lemon
Replace the instant powder with fresh lemon juice and a small amount of natural sweetener to reduce the amount of processed sugar.
Choose Whole Grains
If you're having the tea with a snack, opt for whole grain options like whole grain toast or crackers.
Monitor Portions
Pay attention to the serving size of the instant tea powder and keep it within reasonable limits to avoid excessive sugar intake.

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