[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 862488, member: 21149"] Hi. I'm not the best person to point you to specific books but I'm sure others will. Basically all carbs (sugar, potatoes and cereal etc) are converted to glucose in the body and that is absorbed and causes a blood sugar rise. Some of these carbs are high-GI which means they are absorbed rapidly and cause a blood sugar spike. By reducing these foods you avoid big spikes. Low-GI carbs such as lentils are absorbed slowly and make blood sugar more stable, although they still increase blood sugar if you have diabetes. [/QUOTE]
