In this ‘Winter Desserts Series (Indian)’, I want to see how meethai like Gajar Ka Halwa, Gajak, Moong Dal Ka Halwa etc. impact my blood sugar levels. Will also see if Gur has a better impact vs white sugar, and if sugar free halwa really doesn’t increase blood sugar levels.
.
This series is a part of The Sugar Spike Show, a 1 minute episode show on reels & shorts, where I show the impact of popular foods & drinks on my blood sugar and find ways to reduce the spike.
.
Important: I am not a diabetic, and everyone’s readings can be different, especially diabetics.
.
How to see my results: Best is to see how different food items compare with each other, rather than looking at absolute numbers.
.
Why am I doing this if I’m not a diabetic? – Prevention is the best medicine. Research today shows that high blood sugar variability eventually leads to a variety of health issues among healthy people including diabetes, heart disease, weight gain and so on (See the work of Dr. Rob Lustig, Dr. Casey Means, Dr. Michael Snyder, Jessie Inchauspé etc.).
.
My personal aim:
1. Blood sugar increase after eating = 30mg/dl or lower
2. Max. blood sugar level after eating = 140mg/dl
3. Range = Be within 70-120mg/dl for 90% of the day
.
Please note:
– I am not a doctor & this is not medical advice
– Results can vary by 10-15% if I try on another day
– Calories & quality of ingredients are as important
– Sensor I use: Abbott Freestyle Libre
