For my lunch today I had a salad on a small side plate so not huge. My bg pre lunch was 4.2, after 2 hours it was 5.6. I didn't expect my bg to rise that much
My salad consisted of:
salad (lettuce, grated carrot and red cabbage) - more lettuce than carrot and red cabbage
brie
5 small pickled onions
2 cherry tomatoes
cucumber
2 thin slices of chorizo
What could have made my bg spike?
Should I be looking at the 5.6 at 2 hours rather than the rise from 4.2 to 5.6?
It is the bg level of 4.2 that threw me as it is rarely that low!
