    Well, I do agree with them. They said these would keep it down and level not necessarily low. My husband is type 1 diabetic and these things too would make his sugar rise because he doesn't produce insulin to combat it. As a non diabetic, my insulin would combat it. I think they are saying these things are way better choices than cake, cookies, chips, soda, french fries, etc. Those things would raise even a diabetics sugar more than this list would.

    I am like you, many of the the foods listed don't help lower my blood glucose and actually keep it lingering in higher numbers, albeit not drastically higher. As you stated, everyone's different! Personally, I stay away from a lot of these but if no other sugars for the day it's not a huge deal.
