This video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0z03xkwFbw4&index=7&list=PLDBlJSzHLtpFQ78OSGD-k9fm97DkvJ72U) reports on diet research spanning years. They found that there is no one perfect diet for everybody. In fact, they found the glycemic index of each food varied from person to person. Some people had a high glycemic index for ice cream, while others had a low glycemic index.
Low glycemic foods have low impact on blood serum glucose; whereas, high glycemic foods cause glucose spikes. For example, if you have a high glycemic response to ice cream, your blood sugar would peak after you eat ice cream. For example 30 minutes after eating ice cream your glucose is 200, instead of being normal about 100.
Glucose spikes first make you not hungry, then fall too far, and make your blood sugar low, which makes you hungry.

Great, you are lucky.
@MiltsterD I agree.
im pretty sure the diabetic community have known this for years. We test our bloods regularly and there are real differences from eating the same amounts of food though this can depend on whether your still making some insulin naturally probably the same for everyone with no simple answer hey just like life

If it is known in the community, no one clued me in. I went to the standard diabetic classes, but they just teach the FDA approved diet, which was no help, and some people will be adversely affected on that diet.
Don't eat ice cream

Posted by DotLewis7 March 2020 - Diet Diary - Been quiet around here lately. I've not been on vacation, just keeping a low profile and trying to stay on top of things. Are those things incompatible?
