[QUOTE="borofergie, post: 239662, member: 33342"] It's a good question, and one I've often pondered myself. We're often told that it's the spikes that do most of the harm, which would suggest that the longer lower spike would be less harmful. The geeky engineer in me tells me that there is an exposure element to this too. If I had to chose, then I'd go for the spike that has the smallest area under the curve. This is one of the reasons that I'm not so keen on the whole low-GI thing. I'd rather get my spike out of the way than have it lingering for hours. [/QUOTE]
