[QUOTE="Cocosilk, post: 2073542, member: 501623"] Why wouldn't you be able to eat anything if you tested at 30 mins? The thing about the spikes is that the foods that cause higher spikes in everyone, even non-diabetics, are probably the foods that damage our bodies and eventually lead to insulin resistance and T2 diabetes. Isn't that how it works? If someone eats a diet that only includes foods that cause spikes to say 6 or 7 mmol vs someone who eats foods that regularly cause spikes to 8, 9, 10 and into the teens, the extra insulin required by the body to deal with those spikes is problem, isn't it? And your overall blood glucose average would surely be higher too, wouldn't it? T2 diabetes is not something you are born with, is it? So when you start out your life eating the foods that cause high spikes, your body can handle it for years, with less severe spikes and a faster return to a normal level of 4 or 5 mmol, but after years of this it starts to fail and the.spikes get higher and the returns creep up as well. Please correct me if I'm misunderstanding the way it works... [/QUOTE]
