    Just wondering, how many grams of sugar a day would you consider "moderate", say on a 2,000 calorie diet?

    75 to 90
    Total sugar or just added sugar?

    Total

    This study indicates that 45g protein is pretty insulinogenic. 45g protein is a normal meal which I would not consider high

    It's probably half the average daily protein intake, so maybe a bit high for a "normal" meal for many.

    Insulin response depends on type of protein and rate of absorption too, but 16 grams of whey is sufficient to give a substantial increase in insulin and reduction in blood sugars area under the curve.

    If I had the option between sugar free and sand... I'd take the sand.
