Never eat what Dr. Casey Means calls, “naked carbohydrates.” Carbs without any accompanying fat, protein, or fiber. Research has shown that when carbohydrates are eaten first in the meal before any protein or fat the glucose response is often higher than it is when those carbs are eaten later in the meal. One study showed that when vegetable & chicken are consumed 15 mins before carbohydrates, in this study, ciabatta & orange juice, glucose levels after the meal were decreased 27% after 30 minutes & almost 37% after 60 minutes. Moreover, insulin levels 1 & 2 hours after the meal were significantly lower when protein & vegetables were eaten before the carbohydrates. Combining fat & carbs can also help offset the glucose spike from the carbs. A simple toss of a few raw nuts can have a dramatic response on the way your body responds.”",
