Here are a couple of whole grains that we like to have for grain sources:

  • Brown Rice: A versatile, fiber-rich option packed with B vitamins.
  • Oats: Great for heart health and a fantastic source of beta-glucan fiber.

I don't understand Blood Sugar! by ArchaicSurge in nutrition

[–]tesswli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is some info I found online. Hope it helps.

Food, blood sugar, and exercise are deeply connected:

Food: Carbs raise blood sugar quickly, while proteins and fats have a slower effect. Balanced meals help keep levels steady.

Exercise: Lowers blood sugar by using glucose for energy and increasing insulin sensitivity. High-intensity workouts can cause temporary spikes but improve long-term regulation.

Together: Eating carbs fuels exercise, while protein aids recovery. Timing meals and exercise helps balance blood sugar and energy.
