Blood Glucose Response Test – Peanut Butter

Posted

peanut-butter-organicAs I was deciding on what to test this week, I found the perfect answer with an almost empty jar of peanut butter.

I don’t discriminate nuts and eat all varieties – peanuts, walnuts, pecans, macadamia, brazil nuts, almonds, cashews. So this will be the first of many similar tests.

The two big takeaways this time were (a) As expected given 4 net carbs in the serving size, my 1-hour blood sugar response was low compared to previous tests, (b) however, this was the first test out of 8 where my 2-hour response was higher than my 1-hour glucose measurement.

All of the numbers are relatively low, so it’s not worrisome, more likely an outside or unpredictable influence.

With that said, I’ll be interested to see how the lower net carb nuts like macadamia stack up against peanuts.

Here are the results:

  • Date: 11/17/2016
  • Food: Peanut Butter
  • Fast: ~12 hours
  • Base Blood Sugar: 87 mg/dL
