[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 2454672, member: 85785"] Janumet is a combination of of sitagliptin and metformin. A Gliptin is a drug that should have a direct effect on how high you spike because it increases the amount of insulin that you need to help with your food. Maybe the dosage is too low. Maybe it's because you are still eating too many carb laden meals, it could be that your insulin resistance is worse when first given the drugs. Maybe as a T2, that you need a different drug or that you still are not getting enough insulin for the carbs laden meal. You may have hyperinsulinaemia, which is too much useless insulin circulating. If you continue spiking at those levels, it's not good. White bread is 100% carbs. That is far too high for someone who may have an intolerance to wheat. Beans even with reduced sugar, is still full of sugar and you should only be eating a few beans anyway. Use your cgm to discover similar foods you should not be eating. [/QUOTE]
