Well, there is a catch here. The sweetness of the fruits can come from fructose (which tastes much sweeter than glucose at the same amount.) But due to the digestion path, the fructose goes to the hepatic portal vein after being absorbed. Thus it does not raise the blood sugar count like glucose. This, of course, does not mean you can eat lots of sweet fruits. Just want to make the point--sweeter fruits do not necessary raise blood sugar count than the not-so-sweet fruits at the same amount. In fact, if the not-so-sweet fruits contain more glucose (and less fructose), then they can actually raise the blood sugar more (than the sweeter fruits at the same amount).
Fasting 16:8, no carbs or sugary drinks ever. Down 40 pounds since July 2024 and 40 more to lose. I walk daily 2.5 miles and jump rope now too. Add ankle weights during walks. I feel amazing ❤I'm 60 years old now
Hi @@1DarkBlossom I understand. A couple of good carb sources mentioned below. It seems there is some science behind Jessie's hacks, they work so even white bread gives less of a glucose spike if they are used. Great knowledge to have. For the most part they are band-aids to hold down blood glucose from high starch foods but still some great knowledge. Better sources of carbs If there is enough dietary fibre with the carbs/sugars it seems blood glucose levels are steadied accordingly. For example I just had a bowl of at least 12-hr soaked and rinsed red lentils with a couple of small diced peaches and table spoon of full cream milk powder. It was delicious. *The The carbs to fibre ratio is about 2:1 for the lentils.* I experience good energy from such foundational fixes like red lentils but am still using the hacks when eating things like white bread/rice etc. So, simply using carbs that come naturally packaged with lots of fibre e.g. lentils, millets, beans, peas are foundational carb sources that make many of the band-aid 'hacks' unnecessary. I'm so glad I found some foods that provide steady carbs and nice nutrition without the glucose spike. Cheers Sincerely d
@@davidfenton3910 Thanks for the helpful insight. The glucose spike is just one of my problems. I am trying the veggie starter methode. BUT, I was recently diagnosed with an autoimmune disease and I figured, gluten is a massive trigger. So, I am avoiding gluten all together. It’s hard, man. Nothing compares to feeling good but bread and wine are just delicious. I feel like crying when I think about summer and I can’t have a cold beer either (it’s cold now where I live, so I don’t bother as much for now). I know it sounds like first world problems, it’s just so frustrating. I do Love lentils with a fat slice of BREAD and thick layer of butter 😂
I fermented my oats in yoghurt for 24 hours. It does not spike my sugar and the oats helps lowering cholesterol. I also add some spices to it such as cinnamon, paprika, ginger powder, garlic granules, cloves and nutmeg. Add berries to it and it's a powerhouse start.
Thank you for your comment. It’s so refreshing to read someone who has been proactive. You have invented Bircher muesli with less added carbs, usually can have grated apple and apple juice. I don’t add apple juice to mine and reduce the grated apples. Berries are a marvellous idea. 👍
Funny how 99% of our food is processed. Anything the FDA says to eat I just do the opposite. I recommend reading “Health and Beauty Mastery” by Julian Bannet, that book is a real eye opener about shocking stuff health industry is doing! I completely changed my habits
If you don't like the taste of vinegar, try it with water and add 1/2 spoon of metamucil, takes the taste away and has other benefits also, lowers cholostral
This video on glucose spikes by the "Glucose Goddess" is incredibly eye-opening! I never realized how much our daily food choices-like oats, fruits, and even "healthy" options like honey-can lead to glucose spikes, affecting everything from aging to mental clarity and even fertility. The practical hacks like starting your meal with veggies, adding vinegar, and focusing on a savory breakfast make managing glucose feel less daunting. I’m definitely trying these tips out. Thanks for sharing this valuable info-it's a game-changer for health-conscious people!
Watching too many of these videos on diabetic health can be depressing when you have to cut out so many foods til you’re mostly starving or living solely on protein and salads. Is it worth it? Do we have to choose between quality of life and enjoying what years we have left, or fast and look longingly at others eating what you used to enjoy eating?
This video is a game changer! The Glucose Goddess brilliantly breaks down complex concepts about blood sugar and health into actionable tips. Her five hacks for reducing glucose spikes are practical and easy to implement. I especially love the idea of starting meals with veggies and the importance of a savory breakfast. This content is not just informative; it empowers viewers to take control of their health. Thank you for sharing such valuable insights!
Oxalates and phytic acids and lectins and pesticides and no seed oil. If you drink vinegar then a straw is needed, with some days of to avoid stress on kidneys. There should be some changes and also fasting several days to avoid sugar and starch. Oxalates can be used with a fasting protocol to reduce carcinogens but not too often in a week.
I found on my own that eating a 100 percent protein breakfast really set the stage for me for the rest of the day. I'm going to implement her recommendations to see how they impact my my glucose levels.
Hi, can you share what you have? I'm not really big on eggs, just don't really like them. But, I try to stay away from processed food. Could use some ideas. Toa 😊
On FRUIT. For years I’ve avoided all sugary foods, including’hidden’ sugars. I also avoided the usual pizza/burger junk stuff, and I have very little alcohol. I’m pretty active. But, following all the medical advice out there, I eat loads of raw fruit. My weight constantly climbs if I don’t struggle to restrict calories (intermittent fasting, even with total zero calorie days of IF, had no effect on my weight). So I have to reluctantly acknowledge fruit causes this weight gain, it just can’t be anything else, it’s the only thing I snack on and often I replace a meal with an apple or banana. I’ve recently been diagnosed as prediabetic, so fruit has to go. It seems they were right after all, sugar is sugar.
Or you can mix them with something lime chickpeas. Those are very neutral in taste and won't affect the oats much but as beans they probably have the GI of zero and will stretch the glucose spike in time. Lowering it thereby.
At 73 and as a relatively recent captive to this modern Plague World of Diabetes, I have come to the conclusion that this subject has created more Contradictions in eating advice than anything else I can remember!!! However, I already tried to give up Bread, Pasta, Grains, Potatoes, Sugar, and Fruit - as suggested by my health practitioners - and decided I didn't want to live that miserably :) But yes, I will now investigate Jessie's books and try some more hacks to find the happy balance :) RjB
I'm 57 and new to this diabetes issue. I decided I'm not going to starve myself. Nothing about this no carb and no starch diet. Will try to eat smarter. About what ingredients to not mix in same meal
@@naze1266 Try the 50, 30, 20 diet. 1) 50% of the plate = salad (dark green, light green, red, yellow or more colors); 2) 30% carbs (there are 3 groups of carbs: a) Grains; b) Tubercules; c) Cereals (not the boxed ones). Ex. Rice, oats, potatoes, etc. Any combination of three of these three groups. 3) 20% Protein (preferrably not of animal origin. Ex. Beans plus seeds like chia or linseed, etc.). Could be lentils plus almonds, or beans plus chia; lima beans plus sweet potatoes, etc. Eat like this and you will never feel hungry and your Krebs cycle (a complex chemical reaction in the gut that ensures the right release of nutrients into your body, healing and rejuvenating it.) EDIT: Don't mix vegetables and fruits in the same meal; or fruits and proteins; it's better to eat fruits alone because of the different digestion times. Fruits are digested fast and if mixed with other groups, they have to wait until the other food is digested and will cause fermentation.
I'm right with ya at 73. Think back to when we grew up and how many of the kids were on the heavy side let alone obese. Very few if any. Look at kids today and it's obvious the culture of fast and processed foods have taken it's toll. Now instead of diet modification and exercise, the easy fix is "the shot". Unfortunately there will be unforeseen health issues down the road with this "solution" and the obvious follow up of litigation. It's a truly bizarre circle of life that's been created. We probably grew up in the best of times. Stay healthy.

I started watching these type of videos, around a month ago, i eat a lot of sugar and i mean a lot each day, so i wanted to change my diet and start to be healthy, cutting down on sugar, chocolate, cakes etc and eating more nuts, veg, changed to Coconut oil for cooking. But as i watch more and more videos from different experts, i am getting more depressed, so much conflicting post, eat this its good for you, then someone else , oh don't eat it ! Frankly i am getting fed up with it, and that is just after a month! We need some one to say this is ok that is not, and everyone agree? Maybe get all these experts on one panel and hear what they say and hear the argument for against!
There are different experts who may have conflicting info. You must try what seems to make the most sense to you. Give it an honest try for a few weeks. Track your progress. Stay with it and be consistent. That's the only way to figure out what will work for you. I found that some type of whole food keto works best for ME. Stay with it until you figure it out. You got this!
Have you NO discernment or critical thinking ? If so...use them instead of whining! The overall message is clear! They differences are at the margins! Bet you have solid public school education: no critical thinking necessary or even taught! You want to be told what to think!

Thank you for sharing this invaluable video! I have to change how and when I eat Oats ... usually at night (stopping that). I would add dehydrated raisins, cranberries, blue berries, pineapple, peaches - sometimes, pumpkin and sunflower seeds and pour boiling water to cook it in a small bowl, with a dash of aromatic bitters. I drink warm Lemon water first thing in the morning. I eat lots of fresh veggies, three times daily, especially Lettuce, Carrots, Cucumbers and Tomatoes. For breakfast, I add it to two slices of whole wheat bread with, sometimes, a boiled egg or low cholesterol butter for breakfast. Now, I know that I need to eat the fresh veggies before the starch.
Changing your diet alone is not the answer. The actual cause of many of these diseases is stress. That's why people who have healthy diets, exercise etc still get diabetes, auto immune diseases. Dr Gabor Mate has videos explaining this
0:00 Start 1:25 Explanation of Glucose Spikes and Their Harmful Effects Glucose spikes are caused by eating large amounts of starches and sugars, which overload the bloodstream with glucose. Consequences include chronic fatigue of mitochondria, accelerated aging (glycation), and insulin resistance, leading to fat gain, fertility issues, brain fog, and increased risk of Alzheimer's. 4:35 Hack #1: Eat a Savory Breakfast Prioritize protein-rich foods like eggs, fish, nuts, tofu, or leftovers, paired with healthy fats (e.g., avocado) and fiber. Avoid sweet foods, including fruit juices, jams, sweet cereals, and yogurts. A savory breakfast keeps you full for 4+ hours and prevents glucose spikes. 5:29 Hack #2: Drink 1 Tablespoon of Vinegar Daily Dilute 1 tablespoon of vinegar (e.g., apple cider vinegar) in a large glass of water and drink it before your largest meal. Vinegar slows the breakdown of food into glucose, reducing spikes by up to 30%. Avoid vinegar gummies as they often contain sugar. 6:33 Hack #3: Start Meals with Vegetables Eat fiber-rich veggies as the first part of your meal to create a protective barrier in the intestine, slowing glucose absorption. This reduces glucose spikes by up to 75% when combined with the proper food order: veggies → protein/fats → starches/sugars. 7:32 Hack #4: "Clothe" Your Carbs Pair starches and sugars with fats, protein, or fiber. For example: Bread with avocado or ham Pasta followed by a salad instead of the reverse Rice and beans together 8:09 Hack #5: Move After Eating Use your muscles for 10 minutes post-meal. Activities can include walking, cleaning, or doing calf raises. Calf raises specifically activate the soleus muscle, which efficiently absorbs glucose from the bloodstream. 9:09 Be Careful Eating This #1: Oats Oats and oat milk are high in starch and cause significant glucose spikes if eaten alone. Add protein (e.g., eggs or protein powder), fat (e.g., nut butter), or fiber to minimize the impact. 11:04 Be Careful Eating This #2: Oat Milk Oat milk, being liquid starch, causes major glucose spikes. Alternatives like almond, coconut, or cow’s milk are better options. 12:55 Be Careful Eating This #3: Modern Fruits Today’s fruits are bred to be sweeter, larger, and lower in fiber, making them more glucose-intensive. While fruits are better than processed sweets, consume them at the end of a meal rather than on an empty stomach to reduce spikes.
This is what I have learned since being diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes two weeks ago. It isn't the amount of sugar you eat in a day that is the sole culprit here. It is the amount of sugar in a very short period of time. For example eating a chocolate bar twice a week is fine but eating that same chocolate bar twice one after another in a single sitting is harmful. Also eating and drinking stuff with sugar in it on an empty stomach is far worse than eating that same stuff when you have had fibre. It is the fibre that acts like a filter slowing down and dispersing the sugar evenly flattening the spike as the sugar is introduced into the blood stream. I have started to weight my meals heavily towards meat. I always try to have a vegetable base in the meal that I ALWAYS eat first. This is important the veg first. I also completely stopped the biscuits and sugar in coffee. I drink more tea and water. I limit milk to a pint a day or less. Sometime none. On the weekend I allow myself a treat.
I have read many books, I listened to many UA-cam videos by many of the world's leading gurus and health experts but nothing came close to the hidden herbs by anette ray. I recommend everyone giving it a read.
Why don't you just tell us the herbs? Seems like you're trying to sell a product right now and will not give us the answer. This is just marketing from you. And play the other post could be Bots as well. Possibly you as well
Yep. I'll bet that's what it is - the style is unmistakable. Pimary giveaway: _complete_ lack of information/specifics as to _why_ is this Annette Ray's books are so wonderful. Now, expect a long thread full of fake admiration of Annette Ray books posted by bots (probably publisher personnel or a hired botfarm). Not sure if you can search comments across the site, but I bet there's multiple copies of the above all over in every thread having something to do with the subject. 😨
The 'clothing' thing is mistaken. If you cover your starches and sugars with something all that happens is the glucose spike is delayed until whatever you have covered your carbs with has been digested...and then bam - you get a spike maybe 4 or 5 hours later rather than earlier. As for the savoury fat and protein laden breakfast - out of the pan and into the fire. And pinhead oats, aka steel cut digest much more slowly than rolled oats and they do lower cholesterol.
The idea of a simple 1-cup-a-day solution to lower blood sugar and combat diseases is incredibly motivating! Learning practical sugar hacks from the Glucose Goddess could make managing blood sugar levels easier and more effective. I'm excited to see which tips she shares and how they can fit into a daily routine. Thank you for this amazing information-can’t wait to try these hacks!

My dentist told me to stop eating lemons and apple cider vinegar even with salad because the enamel is beginning to wear off my teeth. Six months after his advice I have arthritic like pains in my right shoulder and left thumb. I'm 74 and never had aches before.
maybe you developed it now, not before you gave up ACV. Healthy 74? There is no info relating ACV and arthritis that I've seen. It's just acetic acid, which is what is taking people's enamel off their teeth. If it's the clear ACV then it's useless.
Great video! I love how you break down the daily diet for achieving under 9% body fat while building muscle. It’s inspiring to see practical tips that can be applied in real life. I also found the insights from the 'Glucose Goddess' video about oats fascinating! The hacks to beat diseases and lose weight are incredibly valuable. As someone who shares similar health content, I appreciate how you emphasize the importance of nutrition. Do you have any additional tips on how to maintain this diet during social events? Keep up the fantastic work!
It’s full of misinformation. I can’t believe that people follow this sad excuse for information. Sugar doesn’t causes diabetes. Diabetes is caused by insulin resistance which is caused by obesity. Sad 😢
I can tell u that this is not always the case. I know a person who quit sugar for 14 years, consumes less oil , exercises regularly 10000steps perday, yet is suffering . All these sufferings are outcome of inflammation which can be caused even without sugar.
Thank you so much for your advice on how to eat your food properly, so it doesn’t spike your glucose levels in your body and cause all these problems. You have no idea how much I appreciate I have learned from this video. I thought I was eating healthy I just didn’t grow my food appropriately.❤ one question can you eat freeze dried fruit in place of fresh fruit? And is it the same as eating fresh fruit?
So what about the the thumbnail ? Add this to your cup of water. What it is that you should add to your cup of water? No mention in this video. Can anybody tell me please what it is ?
Vinegar. Adding a tablespoon of vinegar to a glass of water and drink before the meal. In fact, it is vinegar added to the meal, like a salad , that has a small reduction of the meal GI. If you are eating low GI foods, it won’t make that much difference. This video has a lot of misinformation about diabetes and its management.
I can't drink acv daily, even diluted it is burning the back of my throat , and I have reduced from tablespoon to teaspoon acv with large glass of water . How long should i wait to eat after drinking acv . Oat milk is only 10% oats the rest is seed oil (inflammatory)and water . Thank you for helping with your videos .
I have been diabetic for 15 years now, I am 54 years old and have always worked out around 4 days a week on average. diabetes runs in my family. I have tried in the past to eat a low carbohydrate diet but have never been able to control my blood sugars. My Dr. has me taking four different medications but my A1C averages around 7-7.4. 1 started taking this supplement for 2 weeks now and my glucose numbers are down. My mornings use to be between 128 and 139 Now they are 81 with some 79. My 14 days average has gone down to 106. my goal is to either stop taking all medication or only take one. Not saying that this supplement is the cure but it has proven to me that it is helping in some way. I hope that this helps someone out there make a decision if they are willing to give it a try like I did. Bes of luck to everyone with diabetes Check link in reply ☺️
@BenLucero-g3g Take two full droppers under your tongue in the morning before breakfast... Hold the tincture under your tongue for 30 seconds before swallowing to maximize absorption. If the taste is too potent or prefer another method, dissolve two full droppers in a glass of water and drink it either in one go or split into two servings. You will love the results and feel the difference with each drop. I have given link in my reply 🙃
@BenLucero-g3g seems my replies are getting deleted because they contain *externl links * click the link 👇 and check pinned comment 😅 that's the only solution!!!!
That's a lie, How do you explain all these skinny ppl with type 2 diabetes. For some,obesity, some the pancreas doesn't produce insulin, also some diet is full of starches n sugars. Not , exercise it's a multiple factors, but it's also plenty people that's not overweight has it.
Can you just drink a glass of something like psyllium husk right before a meal? I skip breakfast. Thinking lunch might be the fiber drink, followed by 6 eggs and 1/2 stick butter, scrambled. Thus very very low carb.
What about Boby building?? Being in bulk now and cravings for carb to reach 3.5k calories per day at least... but considering my active life at the b&mtb @bikearth lumberjacking , working in garden and workout one day and off that calories are just enough to be small sligthly surpluss.. struggling to surpass 80kg from weeks now😢. A healty lifestyle can't not regalsess to a good amount of muscle to bring in old age 😊 journey to be the fittest 50th on YT going on🏋♂️🤩
The body is made to be used.. walk run, swim, lift things, eat what's natural. Our problem is city living everything is trucked in from where who knows.
I think that cows milk (or milk from any animal actually) wouldnt be half as bad if it wasnt for the sugar content. So even if I dont feel I am lactose intolerant, is it better to drink like lactaid milk, even if it is from an animal source?
For muscle building you need glucose spikes two times a day 😊 By the way you can not build muscles without insulin 😊 Insulin can store fat and it burn fat ❤
Up until a couple of years ago, for a long time I’d been eating oat flakes with oat milk for breakfast. It was tasty and filling and I’d been led to believe that oats were healthy and good for the heart, it even said so on the cereal box; this is referred to as health washing (oat milk is particularly bad because it’s blended with seed oil to create the smooth texture). After some time I noticed that I wasn’t feeling great, my skin was terrible and my weight had increased to the point I was in the obese category. As well as breakfast, my diet was generally sub-optimal so I began to investigate further and discovered many of the issues and solutions covered in this video. Applying these solutions made a massive difference; my weight is in the ideal range now and my skin is vastly improved. I can thoroughly recommend following the principles mentioned here.
Oat milk? I still don't understand why people prefer this to cow's milk (as long as they aren't lactose intolerant or have milk allergy). I found your comment interesting because I found most of the information to be misleading. True oats (steel cut or rolled) still can make a very filling breakfast and are low GI. Apart from changing your breakfast, no other information here would be significant enough to make you get the weight off. This video is more to do with helping people to attain better diabetes control than weight reduction. I find that baffling. Maybe you could explain this?
@@luisv007 I think that oat milk is promoted as a healthier alternative to cows milk and I fell into this trap, rather than it being a preference either way. The oat flakes I also ate for breakfast were essentially ultra-processed food so, combined with oat milk, it was not an ideal way for me to start the day from a diet point of view. This was just part of a wider realisation that much of my diet, and the impact of sugars, starches, alcohol and refined carbs generally were the cause of my metabolic health issues. As I mentioned in my earlier comment, my diet was generally sub-optimal. So, as I researched the effects of this, I began to understand the impact on the liver (I had been diagnosed with fatty liver), the mechanisms that caused this, inflammation and insulin resistance etc. and this caused me to completely to change my diet to avoid carbs as much as possible or use the food sequencing or combining techniques referred to in this video. That, along with eating more fibre-rich whole foods was the reason for the weight reduction. I was approaching this from a point of view improving metabolic health rather than just diabetes control as I didn't believe that was factor for me. However, had I continued eating the way I had been, then pre-diabetes followed by type 2 diabetes would have been highly probable. I think the content of this video is helpful for everyone concerned about diet quality and it has wider implications than just diabetes control. I hope this clarifies my views.
@@HarryR1 Thanks for your reply. I think that people see these alternative milks as a blessing, but they’re not a natural product. With regards to the oat flakes, it is difficult to comment on because I haven’t seen the ingredients and nutrition panel. Being diagnosed with fatty liver is a combination of your weight and your insulin resistance, as you had prediabetes. Carbs, particularly sugar, and alcohol don’t help that. Your diet was the cause of your metabolic problems and getting the weight off is primary in the reduction of insulin resistance and catabolism of fat in your fatty liver. A high fibre diet helps with your blood glucose control and with weight reduction. A spoke about the misinformation in the video. Usually when you eat foods high in fibre, you are also getting better types of carbs. Fibre and carbs go together in foods. Only human refinement of carbs leads to the loss of fibre. You should be very proud of yourself to get to where you are. You did all the hard work. As a nutrition professional it is always good to see people take the initiative for change. Even though the information that she presents is not always right, it makes changes that are helpful. She has a background in biochemistry. I also have that background but I also have pure chemistry, food chemistry and nutrition. Her knowledge of reading food labels and composition of food is poor. In another video, where she shares her approval and disapproval of food products, but her reasoning is misleading. Weight resistance training, like picking up packets of food, is very helpful in improving insulin sensitivity. Thanks and Good luck.
Oat or almond “ milk” check the labels for many chemicals are in these. These juices take an enormous amount of fossil fuels to produce . What happens to the rest of the oats or almonds?
Your right. Dried fruit has only water removed. The prob with dried fruit is the amount eaten. You’re looking at ~30g or an oz being equivalent to a fruit serve. Adults can usually have we serve of fruit a day. Excess fruit serve can led to weight gain, and in diabetes, poor blood glucose control. Some of her info is very wrong. At least she is rich now
@@bramblebop1904 You previous said that dried fruit is just fruit without water. You can’t create extra sugar from nothing. Doesn’t that make sense? It is an apricot without the water. If you can eat 2-3 fresh apricots, isn’t 2-3 dried apricots the same, except it has the water removed. You need to brush your teeth twice a day. Any carb in your mouth is food for bacteria. Where is your logic? You can’t think for yourselves? Where has your country got to?
She just said they're lieing to us about honey which is true yet mentioned it in this video. I'm so sick of her Contradicting BS. She is not an authority on nutrition, we all have different needs. And her self proclaimed title glucose goddess is efing ridiculous. She's no goddess just a UA-camr making $
Hello. Iam a german with prediabetic Hba1c 6,1. Yesterday i did the following: i soaked chia seeds in three different glasses: 1 water with apple cider vinegar, 2 raw milk, 3 i mixed the chia seeds with 5 eggs. I drank all three glasses over the day, the one with the eggs before going to bed. I fasted until 15 o'clock afternoon. Then i ate a mixed chinese all you can eat meal with liver, mushrooms, baked banana, calamari and other stuff. I felt a liitle bit tired and thought: well, i have big sugar spike now. I measured half an hour after eating and had 105. Thats a great number for me. I did it twice because i couldnt believe. I test measured my healthy wife, that had the same chinese meal: 145. Interesting or not? I will keep on testing the chia thing.

Well, there is a catch here. The sweetness of the fruits can come from fructose (which tastes much sweeter than glucose at the same amount.) But due to the digestion path, the fructose goes to the hepatic portal vein after being absorbed. Thus it does not raise the blood sugar count like glucose. This, of course, does not mean you can eat lots of sweet fruits. Just want to make the point--sweeter fruits do not necessary raise blood sugar count than the not-so-sweet fruits at the same amount. In fact, if the not-so-sweet fruits contain more glucose (and less fructose), then they can actually raise the blood sugar more (than the sweeter fruits at the same amount).

Having no carbs is KILLING me. White bread is so addictive.
Hi @@1DarkBlossom
I understand.
A couple of good carb sources mentioned below.
It seems there is some science behind Jessie's hacks, they work so even white bread gives less of a glucose spike if they are used. Great knowledge to have. For the most part they are band-aids to hold down blood glucose from high starch foods but still some great knowledge.
Better sources of carbs
If there is enough dietary fibre with the carbs/sugars it seems blood glucose levels are steadied accordingly. For example I just had a bowl of at least 12-hr soaked and rinsed red lentils with a couple of small diced peaches and table spoon of full cream milk powder. It was delicious. *The The carbs to fibre ratio is about 2:1 for the lentils.* I experience good energy from such foundational fixes like red lentils but am still using the hacks when eating things like white bread/rice etc.
So, simply using carbs that come naturally packaged with lots of fibre e.g. lentils, millets, beans, peas are foundational carb sources that make many of the band-aid 'hacks' unnecessary.
I'm so glad I found some foods that provide steady carbs and nice nutrition without the glucose spike.
Cheers
Sincerely

@@davidfenton3910 Thanks for the helpful insight. The glucose spike is just one of my problems. I am trying the veggie starter methode. BUT, I was recently diagnosed with an autoimmune disease and I figured, gluten is a massive trigger. So, I am avoiding gluten all together. It’s hard, man. Nothing compares to feeling good but bread and wine are just delicious. I feel like crying when I think about summer and I can’t have a cold beer either (it’s cold now where I live, so I don’t bother as much for now).

Cook your rice the day before, and refrigerate. The glycemic index will be reduced by 40%
Same with potatoes.
I fermented my oats in yoghurt for 24 hours. It does not spike my sugar and the oats helps lowering cholesterol. I also add some spices to it such as cinnamon, paprika, ginger powder, garlic granules, cloves and nutmeg. Add berries to it and it's a powerhouse start.
Thank you for your comment. It’s so refreshing to read someone who has been proactive. You have invented Bircher muesli with less added carbs, usually can have grated apple and apple juice. I don’t add apple juice to mine and reduce the grated apples. Berries are a marvellous idea. 👍
How do you ferment the oats?
Funny how 99% of our food is processed. Anything the FDA says to eat I just do the opposite. I recommend reading “Health and Beauty Mastery” by Julian Bannet, that book is a real eye opener about shocking stuff health industry is doing! I completely changed my habits
Exactly!

If you don't like the taste of vinegar, try it with water and add 1/2 spoon of metamucil, takes the taste away and has other benefits also, lowers cholostral
I've been struggling with my blood sugar levels, and these tips are exactly what I needed. Excited to implement them
Egg dieting, vids on YTube
This video on glucose spikes by the "Glucose Goddess" is incredibly eye-opening! I never realized how much our daily food choices-like oats, fruits, and even "healthy" options like honey-can lead to glucose spikes, affecting everything from aging to mental clarity and even fertility. The practical hacks like starting your meal with veggies, adding vinegar, and focusing on a savory breakfast make managing glucose feel less daunting. I’m definitely trying these tips out. Thanks for sharing this valuable info-it's a game-changer for health-conscious people!
Watching too many of these videos on diabetic health can be depressing when you have to cut out so many foods til you’re mostly starving or living solely on protein and salads.
Is it worth it?
Do we have to choose between quality of life and enjoying what years we have left, or fast and look longingly at others eating what you used to enjoy eating?
Breakfast,lunch and dinner are not necessary.
Every time a meal is eaten glucose is spiked.
One higher fat protein only meal a day is really healthy.
This video is a game changer! The Glucose Goddess brilliantly breaks down complex concepts about blood sugar and health into actionable tips. Her five hacks for reducing glucose spikes are practical and easy to implement. I especially love the idea of starting meals with veggies and the importance of a savory breakfast. This content is not just informative; it empowers viewers to take control of their health. Thank you for sharing such valuable insights!
Oxalates and phytic acids and lectins and pesticides and no seed oil. If you drink vinegar then a straw is needed, with some days of to avoid stress on kidneys. There should be some changes and also fasting several days to avoid sugar and starch. Oxalates can be used with a fasting protocol to reduce carcinogens but not too often in a week.
oxalates give you kidney stones
I found on my own that eating a 100 percent protein breakfast really set the stage for me for the rest of the day. I'm going to implement her recommendations to see how they impact my my glucose levels.
Hi, can you share what you have? I'm not really big on eggs, just don't really like them. But, I try to stay away from processed food. Could use some ideas. Toa 😊
@@shesssosavvy GREEK YOGURT
On FRUIT. For years I’ve avoided all sugary foods, including’hidden’ sugars. I also avoided the usual pizza/burger junk stuff, and I have very little alcohol. I’m pretty active. But, following all the medical advice out there, I eat loads of raw fruit. My weight constantly climbs if I don’t struggle to restrict calories (intermittent fasting, even with total zero calorie days of IF, had no effect on my weight). So I have to reluctantly acknowledge fruit causes this weight gain, it just can’t be anything else, it’s the only thing I snack on and often I replace a meal with an apple or banana. I’ve recently been diagnosed as prediabetic, so fruit has to go. It seems they were right after all, sugar is sugar.
May b use the apple cider vinegar hack also intermittent fasting. 16 8 and vary it by 1 hour add or less..
The food Industry does not give two shits about us humans
It’s all about the almighty dollar💰
It is not who we are but how many that makes money for ill health managers.
Oats may be fine for non-diabetics. I have type 2 and stopped oats because of sugar spikes up to 14 mml. Too many carbs.
Steel cut oats are not as bad for glucose spikes but you got cook it for a half a hour.
Or you can mix them with something lime chickpeas. Those are very neutral in taste and won't affect the oats much but as beans they probably have the GI of zero and will stretch the glucose spike in time. Lowering it thereby.
_Did you put any toppings? Other than oat, was there any high carbs food that you ate that day?_
Steel cut on the stove helps just add berries and cinnamon to taste , no already mixed ones with extra sugars and hidden chemicals .
At 73 and as a relatively recent captive to this modern Plague World of Diabetes, I have come to the conclusion that this subject has created more Contradictions in eating advice than anything else I can remember!!! However, I already tried to give up Bread, Pasta, Grains, Potatoes, Sugar, and Fruit - as suggested by my health practitioners - and decided I didn't want to live that miserably :) But yes, I will now investigate Jessie's books and try some more hacks to find the happy balance :) RjB
I'm 57 and new to this diabetes issue. I decided I'm not going to starve myself. Nothing about this no carb and no starch diet. Will try to eat smarter. About what ingredients to not mix in same meal
@@naze1266 Try the 50, 30, 20 diet. 1) 50% of the plate = salad (dark green, light green, red, yellow or more colors); 2) 30% carbs (there are 3 groups of carbs: a) Grains; b) Tubercules; c) Cereals (not the boxed ones). Ex. Rice, oats, potatoes, etc. Any combination of three of these three groups. 3) 20% Protein (preferrably not of animal origin. Ex. Beans plus seeds like chia or linseed, etc.). Could be lentils plus almonds, or beans plus chia; lima beans plus sweet potatoes, etc.
Eat like this and you will never feel hungry and your Krebs cycle (a complex chemical reaction in the gut that ensures the right release of nutrients into your body, healing and rejuvenating it.)
EDIT: Don't mix vegetables and fruits in the same meal; or fruits and proteins; it's better to eat fruits alone because of the different digestion times. Fruits are digested fast and if mixed with other groups, they have to wait until the other food is digested and will cause fermentation.
Diabetes is a Progressive Disease. The more foods you give up, the more you must give up soon.
@@naze1266When your feet go numb & are removed, you will change your mind...
I'm right with ya at 73. Think back to when we grew up and how many of the kids were on the heavy side let alone obese. Very few if any. Look at kids today and it's obvious the culture of fast and processed foods have taken it's toll. Now instead of diet modification and exercise, the easy fix is "the shot". Unfortunately there will be unforeseen health issues down the road with this "solution" and the obvious follow up of litigation. It's a truly bizarre circle of life that's been created. We probably grew up in the best of times. Stay healthy.

I Always have protein/eggs for breakfast. It helps prevent migraines.
This video is incredibly eye-opening! The explanation on glucose spikes and how certain foods affect our health makes it so much easier to understand the impacts of our diet
Good info, my immune system is overactive, this opened my eyes to oatmeal. Another form of sugar.
Absolutely, I completely agree! The insights on glucose spikes are crucial for understanding our health. If you’re interested in more tips on nutrition and healthy living, check out my channel! I share similar content that dives into diet impacts and wellness strategies. Would love to have you join our community!
Thank you for all the information
I started watching these type of videos, around a month ago, i eat a lot of sugar and i mean a lot each day, so i wanted to change my diet and start to be healthy, cutting down on sugar, chocolate, cakes etc and eating more nuts, veg, changed to Coconut oil for cooking. But as i watch more and more videos from different experts, i am getting more depressed, so much conflicting post, eat this its good for you, then someone else , oh don't eat it ! Frankly i am getting fed up with it, and that is just after a month! We need some one to say this is ok that is not, and everyone agree? Maybe get all these experts on one panel and hear what they say and hear the argument for against!
There are different experts who may have conflicting info. You must try what seems to make the most sense to you. Give it an honest try for a few weeks. Track your progress. Stay with it and be consistent. That's the only way to figure out what will work for you. I found that some type of whole food keto works best for ME. Stay with it until you figure it out. You got this!
Have you NO discernment or critical thinking ?
If so...use them instead of whining!
The overall message is clear! They differences are at the margins!
Bet you have solid public school education: no critical thinking necessary or even taught! You want to be told what to think!
What dr Jason Fung on UA-cam. His diabetic videos. He uses fasting and low carb high fat. He has the science that backs it up

Jessie is a biochemist, a profession chosen due to her own health issues that she resolved, causing her passion toward health and finding ways to simplify employing good habits. There are many folks out there. Not all info is equally researched. Suggested that you do as stated above: find what works for your body/system. Stop waiting for someone to save you. YOU have the ability to find the info that will help you bring your health in to focus and improve it. For severe issues, find a functional medicine physician. Take good care❤
So the Brits were right. English breakfast is the way to go! 😮
Thank you for sharing this invaluable video! I have to change how and when I eat Oats ... usually at night (stopping that). I would add dehydrated raisins, cranberries, blue berries, pineapple, peaches - sometimes, pumpkin and sunflower seeds and pour boiling water to cook it in a small bowl, with a dash of aromatic bitters. I drink warm Lemon water first thing in the morning. I eat lots of fresh veggies, three times daily, especially Lettuce, Carrots, Cucumbers and Tomatoes. For breakfast, I add it to two slices of whole wheat bread with, sometimes, a boiled egg or low cholesterol butter for breakfast. Now, I know that I need to eat the fresh veggies before the starch.
Changing your diet alone is not the answer. The actual cause of many of these diseases is stress. That's why people who have healthy diets, exercise etc still get diabetes, auto immune diseases. Dr Gabor Mate has videos explaining this
You are absolutely right!
I became diabetic when I had 3 deaths of close friends, in one year. Trauma and shock was a predisposing factor in my experience.
love your information, I now truly understand how to stay health thanks to you.P.S. I love your book.
0:00 Start
1:25 Explanation of Glucose Spikes and Their Harmful Effects
Glucose spikes are caused by eating large amounts of starches and sugars, which overload the bloodstream with glucose.
Consequences include chronic fatigue of mitochondria, accelerated aging (glycation), and insulin resistance, leading to fat gain, fertility issues, brain fog, and increased risk of Alzheimer's.
4:35 Hack #1: Eat a Savory Breakfast
Prioritize protein-rich foods like eggs, fish, nuts, tofu, or leftovers, paired with healthy fats (e.g., avocado) and fiber.
Avoid sweet foods, including fruit juices, jams, sweet cereals, and yogurts.
A savory breakfast keeps you full for 4+ hours and prevents glucose spikes.
5:29 Hack #2: Drink 1 Tablespoon of Vinegar Daily
Dilute 1 tablespoon of vinegar (e.g., apple cider vinegar) in a large glass of water and drink it before your largest meal.
Vinegar slows the breakdown of food into glucose, reducing spikes by up to 30%.
Avoid vinegar gummies as they often contain sugar.
6:33 Hack #3: Start Meals with Vegetables
Eat fiber-rich veggies as the first part of your meal to create a protective barrier in the intestine, slowing glucose absorption.
This reduces glucose spikes by up to 75% when combined with the proper food order: veggies → protein/fats → starches/sugars.
7:32 Hack #4: "Clothe" Your Carbs
Pair starches and sugars with fats, protein, or fiber. For example:
Bread with avocado or ham
Pasta followed by a salad instead of the reverse
Rice and beans together
8:09 Hack #5: Move After Eating
Use your muscles for 10 minutes post-meal. Activities can include walking, cleaning, or doing calf raises.
Calf raises specifically activate the soleus muscle, which efficiently absorbs glucose from the bloodstream.
9:09 Be Careful Eating This #1: Oats
Oats and oat milk are high in starch and cause significant glucose spikes if eaten alone.
Add protein (e.g., eggs or protein powder), fat (e.g., nut butter), or fiber to minimize the impact.
11:04 Be Careful Eating This #2: Oat Milk
Oat milk, being liquid starch, causes major glucose spikes.
Alternatives like almond, coconut, or cow’s milk are better options.
12:55 Be Careful Eating This #3: Modern Fruits
Today’s fruits are bred to be sweeter, larger, and lower in fiber, making them more glucose-intensive.
While fruits are better than processed sweets, consume them at the end of a meal rather than on an empty stomach to reduce spikes.
This is what I have learned since being diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes two weeks ago. It isn't the amount of sugar you eat in a day that is the sole culprit here. It is the amount of sugar in a very short period of time. For example eating a chocolate bar twice a week is fine but eating that same chocolate bar twice one after another in a single sitting is harmful. Also eating and drinking stuff with sugar in it on an empty stomach is far worse than eating that same stuff when you have had fibre. It is the fibre that acts like a filter slowing down and dispersing the sugar evenly flattening the spike as the sugar is introduced into the blood stream. I have started to weight my meals heavily towards meat. I always try to have a vegetable base in the meal that I ALWAYS eat first. This is important the veg first. I also completely stopped the biscuits and sugar in coffee. I drink more tea and water. I limit milk to a pint a day or less. Sometime none. On the weekend I allow myself a treat.
I have read many books, I listened to many UA-cam videos by many of the world's leading gurus and health experts but nothing came close to the hidden herbs by anette ray. I recommend everyone giving it a read.
read it a few days ago, its great
I've seen your comments about Annette, Ray many times, I'll have to find this book, sounds interesting 🤔
Why don't you just tell us the herbs? Seems like you're trying to sell a product right now and will not give us the answer. This is just marketing from you. And play the other post could be Bots as well. Possibly you as well
Yep. I'll bet that's what it is - the style is unmistakable. Pimary giveaway: _complete_ lack of information/specifics as to _why_ is this Annette Ray's books are so wonderful. Now, expect a long thread full of fake admiration of Annette Ray books posted by bots (probably publisher personnel or a hired botfarm). Not sure if you can search comments across the site, but I bet there's multiple copies of the above all over in every thread having something to do with the subject. 😨
Thanks for the advert of the book. If you have to spam UA-cam to sell your book. Not interested in the crappy book.
simply brilliant analysis !
The 'clothing' thing is mistaken. If you cover your starches and sugars with something all that happens is the glucose spike is delayed until whatever you have covered your carbs with has been digested...and then bam - you get a spike maybe 4 or 5 hours later rather than earlier. As for the savoury fat and protein laden breakfast - out of the pan and into the fire. And pinhead oats, aka steel cut digest much more slowly than rolled oats and they do lower cholesterol.
The idea of a simple 1-cup-a-day solution to lower blood sugar and combat diseases is incredibly motivating! Learning practical sugar hacks from the Glucose Goddess could make managing blood sugar levels easier and more effective. I'm excited to see which tips she shares and how they can fit into a daily routine. Thank you for this amazing information-can’t wait to try these hacks!

Can a person use the apple cider vinegar vinegar capsule instead? I cannot tolerate the taste of vinegar so I have ACV capsules!
My dentist told me to stop eating lemons and apple cider vinegar even with salad because the enamel is beginning to wear off my teeth. Six months after his advice I have arthritic like pains in my right shoulder and left thumb. I'm 74 and never had aches before.
Yes. Same here… don’t drink apple cider vinegar… it’s going to destroy the teeth 🦷
@@farahnaz8885 dilute it with water and use a straw … that’s how I drink apple cider vinegar
Exactly
maybe you developed it now, not before you gave up ACV. Healthy 74? There is no info relating ACV and arthritis that I've seen. It's just acetic acid, which is what is taking people's enamel off their teeth. If it's the clear ACV then it's useless.
Dentist is lying, looking after his job, if you drink acv water daily, & lemon water, you probably won’t need the dentist
Great stuff!!!
Great video! I love how you break down the daily diet for achieving under 9% body fat while building muscle. It’s inspiring to see practical tips that can be applied in real life.
I also found the insights from the 'Glucose Goddess' video about oats fascinating! The hacks to beat diseases and lose weight are incredibly valuable. As someone who shares similar health content, I appreciate how you emphasize the importance of nutrition.
Do you have any additional tips on how to maintain this diet during social events? Keep up the fantastic work!
EXCELLENT VIDEO!
It’s full of misinformation. I can’t believe that people follow this sad excuse for information. Sugar doesn’t causes diabetes. Diabetes is caused by insulin resistance which is caused by obesity. Sad 😢
Thanks for sharing this link, Educational
I can tell u that this is not always the case. I know a person who quit sugar for 14 years, consumes less oil , exercises regularly 10000steps perday, yet is suffering . All these sufferings are outcome of inflammation which can be caused even without sugar.
Would be interested in knowing - what if anything is helping with inflammation.
Add tumeric to your diet… I have been taking capsules for inflammation…..feel much better
Thank you so much for your advice on how to eat your food properly, so it doesn’t spike your glucose levels in your body and cause all these problems. You have no idea how much I appreciate I have learned from this video. I thought I was eating healthy I just didn’t grow my food appropriately.❤ one question can you eat freeze dried fruit in place of fresh fruit? And is it the same as eating fresh fruit?
And how soon after eating should I get moving to avoid spikes should it be 5 mins an hour?? Does it matter??
What about experts that say lemon juice , not acv? Does either work?
So what about the the thumbnail ? Add this to your cup of water. What it is that you should add to your cup of water? No mention in this video. Can anybody tell me please what it is ?
Vinegar. Adding a tablespoon of vinegar to a glass of water and drink before the meal. In fact, it is vinegar added to the meal, like a salad , that has a small reduction of the meal GI. If you are eating low GI foods, it won’t make that much difference. This video has a lot of misinformation about diabetes and its management.
❤❤Love 😂🎉🎉 🎉.Excellent information. Thanks.
Your awesome glucose goddess from an old grandma
I can't drink acv daily, even diluted it is burning the back of my throat , and I have reduced from tablespoon to teaspoon acv with large glass of water . How long should i wait to eat after drinking acv . Oat milk is only 10% oats the rest is seed oil (inflammatory)and water . Thank you for helping with your videos .
I have been diabetic for 15 years now, I am 54 years old and have always worked out around 4 days a week on average. diabetes runs in my family. I have tried in the past to eat a low carbohydrate diet but have never been able to control my blood sugars. My Dr. has me taking four different medications but my A1C averages around 7-7.4. 1 started taking this supplement for 2 weeks now and my glucose numbers are down. My mornings use to be between 128 and 139 Now they are 81 with some 79. My 14 days average has gone down to 106. my goal is to either stop taking all medication or only take one. Not saying that this supplement is the cure but it has proven to me that it is helping in some way. I hope that this helps someone out there make a decision if they are willing to give it a try like I did. Bes of luck to everyone with diabetes
Check link in reply ☺️
Great info., what is the supplement and the dosage that has improved your symptoms so much, thank you!
@BenLucero-g3g Take two full droppers under your tongue in the morning before breakfast... Hold the tincture under your tongue for 30 seconds before swallowing to maximize absorption. If the taste is too potent or prefer another method, dissolve two full droppers in a glass of water and drink it either in one go or split into two servings. You will love the results and feel the difference with each drop.

Obesity is main cause of type two diabetes. And sugar and junk food main cause of obesity. Its not complicated.
That's a lie,
How do you explain all these skinny ppl with type 2 diabetes. For some,obesity, some the pancreas doesn't produce insulin, also some diet is full of starches n sugars. Not , exercise it's a multiple factors, but it's also plenty people that's not overweight has it.
Can you just drink a glass of something like psyllium husk right before a meal?

Are there references to research studies mentioned?
Where do you take those video clips from??
Is true!! stay away from oatmeal 200% right!!!
I think that cows milk (or milk from any animal actually) wouldnt be half as bad if it wasnt for the sugar content.
So even if I dont feel I am lactose intolerant, is it better to drink like lactaid milk, even if it is from an animal source?
8:15 always 30 min walk after lunch.
How about coffee without sugar after fasting 18 hours?
could work, but wouldnt drinking warm water better? ease into the day?
Maintaining stable blood sugar is important, but remember that every body is different and there is no one-size-fits-all solution.
Moral of the story just dont eat!!
10:29 coco nut milk from the nut us like water, not white .... Madame.
RAW honey does not have the same glycemic index as processed honey...
For muscle building you need glucose spikes two times a day 😊 By the way you can not build muscles without insulin 😊 Insulin can store fat and it burn fat ❤
Insulin blocks fat burning. Always.
Up until a couple of years ago, for a long time I’d been eating oat flakes with oat milk for breakfast. It was tasty and filling and I’d been led to believe that oats were healthy and good for the heart, it even said so on the cereal box; this is referred to as health washing (oat milk is particularly bad because it’s blended with seed oil to create the smooth texture). After some time I noticed that I wasn’t feeling great, my skin was terrible and my weight had increased to the point I was in the obese category. As well as breakfast, my diet was generally sub-optimal so I began to investigate further and discovered many of the issues and solutions covered in this video. Applying these solutions made a massive difference; my weight is in the ideal range now and my skin is vastly improved. I can thoroughly recommend following the principles mentioned here.
Oat milk? I still don't understand why people prefer this to cow's milk (as long as they aren't lactose intolerant or have milk allergy). I found your comment interesting because I found most of the information to be misleading. True oats (steel cut or rolled) still can make a very filling breakfast and are low GI. Apart from changing your breakfast, no other information here would be significant enough to make you get the weight off. This video is more to do with helping people to attain better diabetes control than weight reduction. I find that baffling. Maybe you could explain this?
@@luisv007 I think that oat milk is promoted as a healthier alternative to cows milk and I fell into this trap, rather than it being a preference either way. The oat flakes I also ate for breakfast were essentially ultra-processed food so, combined with oat milk, it was not an ideal way for me to start the day from a diet point of view. This was just part of a wider realisation that much of my diet, and the impact of sugars, starches, alcohol and refined carbs generally were the cause of my metabolic health issues. As I mentioned in my earlier comment, my diet was generally sub-optimal. So, as I researched the effects of this, I began to understand the impact on the liver (I had been diagnosed with fatty liver), the mechanisms that caused this, inflammation and insulin resistance etc. and this caused me to completely to change my diet to avoid carbs as much as possible or use the food sequencing or combining techniques referred to in this video. That, along with eating more fibre-rich whole foods was the reason for the weight reduction. I was approaching this from a point of view improving metabolic health rather than just diabetes control as I didn't believe that was factor for me. However, had I continued eating the way I had been, then pre-diabetes followed by type 2 diabetes would have been highly probable. I think the content of this video is helpful for everyone concerned about diet quality and it has wider implications than just diabetes control. I hope this clarifies my views.
@@HarryR1 Thanks for your reply. I think that people see these alternative milks as a blessing, but they’re not a natural product. With regards to the oat flakes, it is difficult to comment on because I haven’t seen the ingredients and nutrition panel. Being diagnosed with fatty liver is a combination of your weight and your insulin resistance, as you had prediabetes. Carbs, particularly sugar, and alcohol don’t help that. Your diet was the cause of your metabolic problems and getting the weight off is primary in the reduction of insulin resistance and catabolism of fat in your fatty liver. A high fibre diet helps with your blood glucose control and with weight reduction. A spoke about the misinformation in the video. Usually when you eat foods high in fibre, you are also getting better types of carbs. Fibre and carbs go together in foods. Only human refinement of carbs leads to the loss of fibre. You should be very proud of yourself to get to where you are. You did all the hard work. As a nutrition professional it is always good to see people take the initiative for change. Even though the information that she presents is not always right, it makes changes that are helpful. She has a background in biochemistry. I also have that background but I also have pure chemistry, food chemistry and nutrition. Her knowledge of reading food labels and composition of food is poor. In another video, where she shares her approval and disapproval of food products, but her reasoning is misleading. Weight resistance training, like picking up packets of food, is very helpful in improving insulin sensitivity. Thanks and Good luck.

What about whey protein? Some say they have very low sugar
In my experience whey protein has a compound in it called MELODEXTRIN That spikes sugar to give the sportsmen energy i learnt this from Dr Eric Berg

Oat or almond “ milk” check the labels for many chemicals are in these. These juices take an enormous amount of fossil fuels to produce . What happens to the rest of the oats or almonds?
Spring water not put in plastic bottle?
Oats are just like rice. Huge carbs
Put vinegar in your oatmeal.
Dried fruits I'd assume still have all the fiber in them? So why never dried? All that's missing is water. Not fiber.
Your right. Dried fruit has only water removed. The prob with dried fruit is the amount eaten. You’re looking at ~30g or an oz being equivalent to a fruit serve. Adults can usually have we serve of fruit a day. Excess fruit serve can led to weight gain, and in diabetes, poor blood glucose control. Some of her info is very wrong. At least she is rich now
Yep. I think (if I remember it right) the problem with dried fruit is that it is very sugary. And also sticks to the teeth.
@@bramblebop1904 You previous said that dried fruit is just fruit without water. You can’t create extra sugar from nothing. Doesn’t that make sense? It is an apricot without the water. If you can eat 2-3 fresh apricots, isn’t 2-3 dried apricots the same, except it has the water removed. You need to brush your teeth twice a day. Any carb in your mouth is food for bacteria. Where is your logic? You can’t think for yourselves? Where has your country got to?
why have the pasta, oats or rice at all ?
One cup of what?
She just said they're lieing to us about honey which is true yet mentioned it in this video.
I'm so sick of her Contradicting BS.
She is not an authority on nutrition, we all have different needs.
And her self proclaimed title glucose goddess is efing ridiculous.
She's no goddess just a UA-camr making $
I think you will find she has done a lot of research
@@KimmyWoodyou're entitled to your opinion as am I.
She's a fraud!
I had Manuka honey 5 years ago, nothing happened, my glucose level is excellent!!

Hello. Iam a german with prediabetic Hba1c 6,1. Yesterday i did the following: i soaked chia seeds in three different glasses: 1 water with apple cider vinegar, 2 raw milk, 3 i mixed the chia seeds with 5 eggs. I drank all three glasses over the day, the one with the eggs before going to bed. I fasted until 15 o'clock afternoon. Then i ate a mixed chinese all you can eat meal with liver, mushrooms, baked banana, calamari and other stuff. I felt a liitle bit tired and thought: well, i have big sugar spike now. I measured half an hour after eating and had 105. Thats a great number for me. I did it twice because i couldnt believe. I test measured my healthy wife, that had the same chinese meal: 145. Interesting or not? I will keep on testing the chia thing.
