[QUOTE="Yorksman, post: 355496, member: 55568"] That's happened to me before when I have had lamb and barley stew or a beef stew with only a very small amount of potatoes. They can be low carb and what you take in is easily dealt with by even a poor insulin response. It will have risen after about 30 mins but the rise was easily dealt with. If you have been exercising in the last 24 hours, you usually have a number of different enzymes and hormones in your blood which also help your insulin sensitivity. Eating carbs generally triggers off insulin production it's just that with type 2s, it doesn't work too well. But, if what you eat isn't much carbwise and, depending on what other things you eat, it can be enough. Sadly, vinegar on chips doesn't bring my BG down but a teaspoon of cider vinegar will counter other things that would normally raise my BG 2 points. Combinations are difficult to work out, it's all trial and error. But, stews can be very good for keeping BG down. [/QUOTE]
