[QUOTE="Noel M, post: 2564796, member: 554704"] As has been noted, managing carb intake has the most effect, both in terms of volume and time of day - minimise bread etc with evening meal. Overall volume has been reduced by intermittent fasting, or reducing the hours in the day when food is consumed, as this reduces the need for snacking between meals, therefore lower intake overall. Of late I have also found that the sequence of foods has had an effect. Eating veg / fibre before protein and carbs last helps to eliminate spikes in blood glucose. In addition, eg a salad with dressing (something acidic therefore) slows down the absorption of glucose into the blood stream. By combining a few of these together I find the effect quite noticeable.
