Some carb-rich foods are considered "good" and others "bad." How useful are these linguistic designations in reality?
Ahh okok.
So if I eat a crap ton of fiber while I eat HFCS most of the effects would be mitigated?
Or it being a liquid concentration of glucose + fructose especially bad.
Not planning on eating HCFS, just curious.
Great post!
I didn't get why we want to reduce insulin uptake.
I mean yes, insulin resistance is bad. Of course.
But is it caused by insulin spikes?
Eating potatoes and beans give you huge insulin spikes. But there are cultures that eat 95%+ tubers.
Also you said so yourself. Fructose does weird things without spiking insulin.
That's why I wonder why it's it relevant that some foods produce a huge insulin spike. If it is done by potatoes or seems fine.
