I have eaten porridge every morning for 50 years and now I have found it gives me a huge spike an hour after ( up to 13) , usually gone back down to a more acceptable level at two hours ( in the 5's or6's, however I usually run for around 45 mins straight after so the days I have measured the spikes have been days I haven't run. Thoughts please? I miss porridge, and am craving something bland. My diabetic nurse said not to worry about the hour spikes but I do. I have just found a substitute which may do the job: 1/3 cup ground almonds mixed with an egg and 3 tablespoons water. I added frozen blueberries), microwaved for a minute, stirred, microwaved again for about 45 seconds then stirred in some thick cream, if anyone wants to try it.
