Will it make a difference if I take 15 minutes to eat a slice of white toast?

[QUOTE="oh_dear_me, post: 1671068"] I think you'll be very pleased you have a meter as it really is the only way to see which foods spike you. Through testing I've found I can eat low carb bread (protein roll, Livlife or Hi Lo bread) so have a sandwich most days for lunch now. Breakfast when I have it is often Liz's granola (found in Waitrose or Sainsburys) and if I eat a 50g portion I don't spike at all. However any pasta and my blood sugars shoot up... and it wouldn't matter if I took 1 minute or 20 minutes to eat it...my body just doesn't like it unfortunately. So test as much as you can to start with as it really helps work out what diet to follow and how many grams of carbs you can tolerate :) [/QUOTE]
