[QUOTE="Cocosilk, post: 2072658, member: 501623"] Doesn't testing at 30 mins compared to 1 hour also give an indication of a fast or slow insulin response? I read somewhere that a high spike at 30 mins might show your insulin response is sluggish and not dealing with the carbs, whereas a spike at an hour shows a healthier response. I could be wrong but I think.I read that somewhere. This article has something about it I think [URL]https://www.diabetesselfmanagement.com/managing-diabetes/blood-glucose-management/manage-high-blood-glucose/[/URL] It could be talking about insulin dependent diabetics though and their (in)ability to match their insulin doses to the carbs they eat. I'm not sure. I still want to know whether a higher spike at 30 mins Vs 1 hr has more to do with what you eat (ie, mostly carbs VS carbs with protein and fats) and which one is the more healthy response. Anyone else know? Could also be the response to High GI carbs VS low GI carbs that I was thinking of where High GI spike hard and fast (by 30 mins), then drop off and sometimes end with the BG being too low, whereas Low GI carbs spike lower and slower (by one hour) and don't drop your BG as much afterwards.
