I was very wrong.Secondly, it acts as a marvellous conscience.I have always tested to find out what carbs do to me, but I had no idea how long those spikes lasted.  I was also missing my peak.  We are told that we spike at less than 2 hours.  Well apparently I don't.  Probably because of the LCHF.  I peak at 2.5-3 hours.  So for 3 years I have been missing my peaks.  Which explains why my HBA1c has always been a bit higher than expected.</blockquote>
