[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1894633, member: 41816"] I think the important thing (with ANY food, not just almonds) to to test and find out what that food is doing to YOUR blood glucose. Doesn't matter whether an almond has a GI of 2 or 92, if a 'portion' of it spikes you, you need to avoid it, and it if doesn't spike you, then you can eat it. Testing is how I found out that grains are terrible for my blood glucose, but equivalent carb amounts of potato, generate much lower numbers. And (oddly) I am much better on sugar (yes, the real white stuff that comes from sugarcane) than on starchy root or cereal anything. We are all different, and relying on numbers on an internet page just tells us a fraction of the story. [/QUOTE]
