[QUOTE="Heathenlass, post: 844725, member: 84861"] Trust me, it's not ! Quinoa needs a carb ratio as for any other grain type carb . This it one area where I emphatically disagree with DAFNE , that certain foods magically require no bolus because of a low GI factor . It very much depends on the quantity, for example someone may only eat one parsnip roasted, but consume several in parsnip and pea soup . Pulses are said to not need bolusing for, but unless it is a minuscule quantity, yes they do :rolleyes: The only way you can find out what your toleration level is to a given quantity is suck it and see. According to Cook and Count 100g of cooked quinoa =18.5g carb, so not an insignificant amount of carbs there :rolleyes: Signy [/QUOTE]
