RE: [fast5]Heather - pure beef caused blood sugar spike

 

I love your inquiring mind, Heather!!!

 

This is still too new for me, tho, to mess with those things!

 

Maybe someday, I'll get brave and test.

 

And I wonder how much 'activity' affects BS, as well.....

 

For now, I try very hard to keep my blood sugars stable!

If you get a chance to try pure fish, I'd be curious as to

the results. Or pure whey protein. The assumption with

beef is that it is "protein", but there is a lot of other stuff

going on chemically besides the amino acids.

I knew someone once who was very diabetic and took

his blood glucose levels about every hour or half hour.

He was telling me some of what affected the BG levels,

and I had had no idea. One thing I didn't know: anything

that stimulates cortisol levels (stress, fear, allergies)

can cause a blood sugar spike. And some foods (like

vinegar) lower BG levels for not-well-understood reasons.

So I'm wondering: does ALL protein cause a BG spike

or just beef? 

(A secondary question would be: and how common is it

for beef to do that?).
