[QUOTE="rockape37, post: 1380190, member: 156959"] Baked beans are low GI. I was told not to bolus for the total Carbohydrate content of the baked beans but just bolus for the bit that says " off which Sugars" which is the added sugars in the sauce. It is confusing because the way i and i darexsay all of us here see it is, carbs are csrbs and they all add up and end up in the blood stream. I just bolus for the "of which sugars" and it works for me. The beans in baked beans are a called Haricot beans and the Carbohydrate in them are slow release / low GI. The sauce is high GI due to the sugar content. Regards Martin [/QUOTE]
