In this video, I’m attempting the impossible – making a lower-spike Nutella sandwich! To do this, I’m swapping the usual ingredients with two upgrades: a cleaner chocolate spread from Doctor’s Choice, and protein bread instead of regular white bread. Now the real question is – Will these changes actually reduce the sugar spike? Let’s find out!

Use discount code:- DCROHAN to try the spread!

Disclaimer: I’m not a diabetic. Results are different for each person, especially for diabetics. My own results vary a little each day. Ideally, each person should test on themselves. 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 my results: Best is to focus on general trends & develop an intuition on which foods should spike more, and which less. Don’t focus on absolute numbers.
.
Why I’m doing this if I’m not a diabetic: I’ve noticed that preventing high sugar spikes helps me manage my weight as I get lesser food cravings. Plus, prevention is the best medicine. Research today shows that high blood sugar variability over time can lead to diabetes, heart disease & obesity. Please see the work of Dr. Rob Lustig, Dr. Casey Means, Dr. Michael Snyder & Dr. Annette Bosworth.

My personal aim:
1. Blood sugar increase after eating = 30-40mg/dl or lower
2. Return to baseline = Within 3 hours
3. Range = Be within 70-120mg/dl for 80% of the day
Low Calorie
