The theory is though that these things all impact people in different ways so the testing at 1 hour and 2 hour after your first bite tells you what it does to you. That is the really important thing.I myself could not tolerate any bananas or porridge and the two combined would send me through the roof. I avoid all of the carbs which are in any way shape or form processed. So I will eat carbs in berries and vegetables and at least for the moment no bread, pasta, grains and certainly not sugar. Many people are even stricter avoiding artificial sweeteners. You have to be careful of these because some are not much better than sugar. In general I try and keep my total carbs for a day below 20 and sometimes below 10 but I am trying to have a sledge hammer impact on what was a very high diagnosis and will review everything again in about 4 weeks time.Hope that helps.</blockquote>
