[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 2449893, member: 401801"] Hello Diagram, First off, when there's a lot of different opinions and conflicting "facts" boasters all shouting at you, [I]trust in your meter[/I]. Test before a meal and 2 hours after, you're aiming for a rise of no more than 2.0 mmol/l. If it's over that, the meal was carbier than you could handle.
