Omnivorous Raw Paleo Diet / Re: Whats your view on Raw Honey
« on: April 21, 2009, 08:26:52 am »

An easy experiment (which I do with all carbohydrate foods) is to purchase a glucose monitor from a pharmacy, consume the carbohydrate (e.g., raw honey), and measure your blood sugar level every 10-15 minutes after consumption of the food.  You will most likely observe how the blood sugar from consuming raw honey spikes up within 10 minutes of consuming it and starts to settle down after 30 minutes.  Berries (eaten in equal amount of carbs) also cause a blood sugar spike but much smaller as compared to honey.  Berries mixed with appropriate amounts of fat causes little/no sugar spike.  A blood glucose monitor is very useful in seeing how your body reacts to carbohydrate foods.
