Is it ok to have a spike from carbs once day if levels are good the rest of the day?

[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1001397, member: 41816"] My mother did this too. She announces, in tones of [I][B]doom laden gloom[/B][/I] that 'they are Nightshades, you know.' (note the captialisation) Apparently, way back in the family tree of plants, tomatoes, potatoes and Deadly Nightshade (more captials, you see?) shared a common ancestor. This makes potatoes and tomatoes particularly evil, and out to personally get her (and one particular thumb joint, I understand). Yes, I am being frivolous, but we really have had that conversation (many times), and she has avoided Nightshades for about 20 years. To be fair, she is an excellently healthy, clear skinned, glowing-with-health 80 year old. But I am more likely to put that down to the huge number of dietary supplements, the relatively lc and high omega 3 unprocessed diet, and all her alternative health appointments, than I am to put it down to avoiding potatoes and tomatoes. We have had that conversation many times too. :D;):D [/QUOTE]
