[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 1868568, member: 355878"] For me all the GI an GL figures are irrelevant - I digest carbs and they turn up either in my blood, in my liver or as fat - all bad news. I stick to the lowest carb options for vegetables and fruits, make 10 percent the absolute maximum with a get out clause for high cocoa chocolate as I eat it one square as a serving. The normal need for sugar is zero - the amount of carbs required in a healthy sustainable diet is also zero, but few people cannot tolerate a few carbs, so I pick the tastiest. I did have the advantage of testing, so I know that legumes spike me more than carbs from other sources, and of course such things as grains, potatoes and other high carb foods are not on my menu.
