Reply to comment by tornpentacle in Study demonstrates that how effectively an individual awakens in the hours following sleep is associated four independent factors: sleep quantity/quality the night before, physical activity the day prior, a breakfast rich in carbohydrate, and a lower blood glucose response following breakfast. by the_phet
I’m Type 1, and fat slows down the absorption of carbs for me. Example is pizza - I could eat a pizza crust and sauce and dose it pretty easily. Add in the cheese and it results in delaying the BG spike causing the classic pizza rollercoaster. It’s quite maddening as it’s my favourite food and one of the most difficult for me to eat.

I used to love oats, blueberries and soy milk for breakfast. My Dexcom shows me spiking like I ate freakin sweet tarts and Mountain Dew.

There’s something deeper in this. Lower BG post a high carb meal means high insulin sensitivity and a strongly functioning pancreas.
Would a high protein low carb meal resulting in a lower BG be better for someone diabetic or pre-diabetic? What about a high fat high carb meal that is easier for the insulin to work on?

Reply to 1987 vw jetta. Starts, runs, tiny maintenance costs and never left me stranded. Soon 300k km. Got it since 5y + by korky1318
I had a 86 Jetta GL, 5 speed, sunroof. First car I bought myself and the exact spec I had lusted after for two years of searching.
One night, my clutch cable snapped, dumping the clutch at a light, stalling the car and leaving me stranded.
Tow truck shows up, and they tow it away with the E-brake on. Kills the E-brake and trashes the tire. Mechanic replaces the clutch cable, E-brake and tire and then says “engine is damaged by the cable snapping”.
I pick up the car and the engine has a new ticking sound. I drive it out of the shop and run over the handle of the gas station tank cover, puncturing a different tire.
Mechanic fights me for a week on the cost of a tire, finally throwing a piece of crap on it so I can leave. Tick tick tick goes the engine.
VW tells me it’s three grand to “rebuild the top end”, so I traded it for a Honda.
A couple years later, one of my buddies drives up in a Golf. Tick tick tick. “That’s fuckin normal man. A tappy valve is a happy valve”.

I don’t have enough self control to stick to a reasonable amount of chilli crisp on top.
