*Disclaimer:* I’m not a diabetic. Results are different for each person, especially for diabetics. My own results vary a little each day. Glycemic load, calories, quality & quantity of food, all of these matter. Finally, I am not a doctor & this is not medical advice.
.
*How to see these results:* Best is to see trends & develop an intuition on how to eat different foods. Don’t focus on absolute numbers. Ideally, you should do tests on yourself to get the most personalised results.
.
*Why I do these experiments:* Prevention is the best medicine! Research today shows that lower and fewer sugar spikes in a day reduces the risk of obesity, diabetes, heart disease & PCOS. Please see the work of Dr. Rob Lustig, Dr. Casey Means, Dr. Michael Snyder, Dr. Annette Bosworth, Jessie Inchauspé & Dr Roshani Sanghani

*My personal aim (Source: Levels Health)*
1. Ideal post meal blood sugar increase = 30mg/dl or lower
2. Eat next meal when the previous increase has flattened
