in some different way you know maybe eat a smaller portion maybe pair it more with fat protein and fiber maybe take a walk afterwards but um the the the intention is not to hear these foods and then say oh i can't eat that again it's not a good food so this is that brings me to one of the first ones which is certain fruits there are certain fruits that spike people on average a lot more than others the ones that we see in the data set are banana which is maybe not that surprising um but grapes

grapes have an average glucose spike of over 40 milligrams per deciliter. Whereas like a mandarin orange, for instance, is like 20. So it's a very big difference. We also see even within fruits, like different types of oranges, A mandarin orange has a low spike. A sumo orange is almost double that. And I mean, those sumo oranges are like so unbelievably delicious.

And, you know, it also could be kind of a size thing. But, you know, chop up those oranges, put them in some yogurt and add some zen basil seeds or chia seeds or something with tons of fiber. It's going to potentially blunt that spike. So fruit juice is not a huge surprise, but like orange juice, huge spike, average of 40 milligrams per liter.

So I would say, of course, avoid liquid sugar, which I would consider juices to be liquid sugar. But certain fruits do have more of a spike than others for sure. The next one, corn on the cob. Average glucose spike of 46 milligrams per deciliter, which is the same... What if you lather it in butter? Well, maybe doing some grass-fed... And what if you have it with you?

Yeah, I think it's a good point.

Or grass-fed butter, you know, some really nice butter, some ghee... I actually put corn now β I only use corn really now within recipes because I know that if I eat corn alone, it's going to spike me. So for instance, I make these really great hearts of palm crab cakes. So they're crabless crab cakes, and they have some corn in there. They don't spike me. I eat it with an avocado relish.

There's lots of other stuff going on. So I just have figured out how to balance it to not spike me.
