And we've definitely seen that when carbohydrates, sort of naked carbohydrates like a fruit, are paired with fat, protein, and fiber, people do better. In terms of alternatives, we've seen some really interesting things. We just published an article on Chipotle. We see people logging all sorts of things at Chipotle. Some of them... disaster for glucose.

Some of them... disaster for glucose.
Some of them virtually no glucose response, like an average of seven milligrams per deciliter, very low. So that the really, you know, minimal glucose spiking things is the keto bowl. This is a salad that has protein, you know, fajita veggies, guacamole, salsa, virtually no glucose spike, tons of nutrients.

Burritos, on the other hand, with that gigantic tortilla, send people on average through the roof. So people start learning, if I'm going to go to McDonald's, if I'm going to go to Chipotle, if I'm going to go to Sweetgreen, what should I order that's going to give me the best, you know, bang for my buck in terms of blood sugar?

And then I think the last thing I would- And everybody's different, right?

And then I think the last thing I would- And everybody's different, right?
That's definitely true. So these are more the population-based sort of things that we're seeing that can kind of give you, I think, a general gestalt of where you should start. And then, of course, it's about actually trying it for yourself and seeing what actually works. um, works for you.

There may be that person out there that doesn't spike to a huge flour tortilla, but for most people, um, you know, knowing that getting the keto bowl is going to have totally stable blood sugar on average for the population, they can at least go in there and get that and see what it does, uh, to them. So it kind of, I think nudges people, uh, in the right direction.

And then the last big insight that I think we're seeing is around This is so simple, but it's profound, is walking. We have seen that a simple walk after eating significantly reduces glucose responses. And we actually did an experiment with our members where we sent people a 12-ounce can of Coke, two of them. And we said, hey, if you want to do this, drink this Coke on one day.
