Peer-Reviewed Research
Key Takeaways

- This works especially well for type 2 diabetics to regulate glucose response to refined carbs.
Notable Quotes
“If you’re eating, and it has to be like high protein, high fiber… their glucose response is much more regulated after the protein and fiber.”

Always eat protein and fiber before carbohydrates – especially refined carbs – to significantly reduce blood sugar spikes.
