For diabetics, best is the one that you can get the easiest and in you the fastest It's highly situational. Generally though anything which is a liquid sugar is desirable, be it juice or full fat pop. I never have these in the house though, I just jump for anything sugary and lie there until I can move again. If I ever got myself into a serious pickle I have a glycogen kit in the fridge which would be the fastest treatment. Simple sugars would then be followed up by a more complex carb so you don't spike as hard and have a reactive hypo.

What in the world is full fat pop? Because pop = soda. And last I check, there wasn't any fat floating around in my soda.

Okay, I didn't need that visual!

In the UK that's what we call regular soda as opposed to diet soda. We're aware that it has no more fat in it than diet, it's just a term we use! It may even be regional but I'm not sure on that.

Good to know... it freaked me out at first.

I think I am going to make a documentary called Fed Up Ultimate in which I discuss how fed up I a am with documentaries telling me what to eat based off of opinions pseudoscience, poor case studies, weak trials and a touch of real science all jumbled together. As someone in research, I am highly aware of how much bullsh!ttery goes into many of these things. I'll never trust a documentary for anything more than entertainment.

the phase 'clean food' means a type of food source with one ingredient. so any food that hasnt been messed with or had things added to it before you buy. that comes in its natural form.

lol I dont decide nothing this is stuff I have learned and Im sure many other people know about too. I love learning about food and nutrition. I always read about the key to losing weight is 20% exercise and 80% healthy food intake. I believe in that. Only sharing my opinion and beliefs.

Where are you finding single ingredient bread, pasta, and Greek yogurt? Is there such a thing as a bread plant?

Sorry. . .'messed with' reminds me of Catholic Priest. So these items are okay as long as a Priest hasn't messed with them? What if the Priest grew the corn that was fed to the turkey? Can we assume the corn was clean or NOT GMO grown?

When you say added to it before I buy it?!? What does this mean?

And natural peanut butter has peanuts and sea salt so doe this count or do I need to remove the sea salt?
