[QUOTE="Sid Bonkers, post: 248142, member: 19121"] Hi Phil, wholemeal bread is high GI so hits your bg levels fast and hard but your levels drop afterwards just as fast. Wholemeal bread is no better than white bread and is one of the very few food stuffs I never eat along with pasta :) Wholegrain or multigrain bread is much lower GI and so takes longer to digest and trickle through to your intestines where the glucose converted from the carbs enters your blood stream, this in effect means that the spike is lower but may last a little longer. If you find you cant manage wholegrain/multigrain breads either Burgen bread is worth a try as many diabetics find they can eat a slice or two without any major rise in bg levels, most supermarkets sell Burgen bread nowadays...
