[QUOTE="Totto, post: 515850, member: 91524"] I think it is brilliant to test a single food item like you did with the brown rice to get to know how it works on its own. Then you can go further and test what half a cup does if taken with proper food as part of a meal. Or a quarter of a cup. And keep testing every hour or even half hour if you are that curious, until bg is down to baseline. I did that with glass noodles and was sort of happy the one hour reading was 6.4. Problem was it went up at three and four hours to over 7 and didn't get close to baseline until after five hours. And it wasn't a large helping. So long as you know what you want to know and test I say keep doing it. [/QUOTE]
