[QUOTE="charliebarker, post: 1588147, member: 402964"] At my DN visit on Thursday, she suggested I try to put some heavier carbs back in my diet.....I thought after 5 months of no oats, grains etc I thought I'd see if I could tolerate some porridge. Decided to have some in the evening as my tolerance seems better at that time. Anyway..... Made it with cream rather than milk and it was lovely (I'd really missed my morning porridge). Anyway, BSL before porridge: 6.2.... One hour later: 8.2...... 90 mins post prandial : 8.7... And then it kept going up! Went to bed with it at nearly 10! This morning my fasting blood was 8 instead of it's recent 6.5 or so...and I was jittery and totally hyperactive all morning...it was like I was high on drugs. Is that what they mean by slow-release carbs....they keep releasing for about 12 hours! Worryingly, I used to have porridge EVERY morning ! Shan't be doing THAT again.... [/QUOTE]
