I made some Keto coleslaw yesterday, I lack discipline when it comes to Sauerkraut or any other kind of 'sour' cabbage, I ended up scoffing all 450grams of the stuff (1lb in old money)….I knew I had majorly cocked up, so it was test test - test
I had tested before eating, it was a new recipe with orange zest infused olive oil and I kept justifying more and more helping of the stuff it was that yummy. I also tested 1, 2, 3hrs after
Pre Prandial - 4.6
Post Prandial Hour 1 - 6.1
Post Prandial Hour 2 - 5.9
Post Prandial Hour 3 - 6
Fasting BG this morning 5.9
My question is at what point is a spike unacceptable. I know the standard advice is no more than 2.
I ask because in real life folks do what is healthiest and works and the standard 'official advice' is not always the best for managing this condition.
