[QUOTE="TorqPenderloin, post: 969492, member: 211504"] Tim, I normally agree with you, but the research I've read suggests a bit different. One particular study (Protein Controversies in Diabetes) tested glucose levels in subjects who consumed protein only, glucose only, and then a mixture of both. My interpretation of their findings was that glucose consumption only had expected results (raised blood sugar). Protein only consumption had almost no effect on blood sugar levels. However, a combination of protein and glucose had increased effects beyond a glucose only meal. Long story short- my understanding is that there is a big difference between eating a protein-only meal and eating a protein/carb meal when discussing blood sugar levels. Disclaimer- that was my basic interpretation of their findings. You may interpret it differently. The study was done in 2000 and there may be more recent studies done that had different findings.
