There are so many things that are known to reduce post-meal sugar spikes, so in this series, I’ve decided to actually test all of them! The real victory of this series will be if we find that many of them actually work, because the more options we have, the better! Also, I will do a part 2 of this series soon. That will have juices & infusions such as Methi water, Amla juice, Karela Jamun juice and so on!

Disclaimer: Results are different for each person, especially for diabetics. Glycemic load, calories, quality & quantity of food, all of these matter as well. 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 so that sugar spikes can be lowered. 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 & Dr Roshani Sanghani.

My personal aim (Levels Health):
* Spike of 30mg/dl or lower
* Eat my next meal only when my previous meal has flattened
