I got a box of dried cranberries, they were on sale 9 oz for 79 cents, and I’ve been eating a handful here and there and I love them. Eaten in moderation I haven’t had a problem with spikes and more oddly I have watched as I handle higher carb foods MUCH better than I ever did.
This morning I had a mixture of white rice, red kidney beans, chicken and some sour cream. Normally, white rice destroys my BG counts, I have a soft spot for it though so I gave in. Worse it was the morning so I was waiting for the read of 200+ on my meter after being around 90 +/- 4 at that time in the morning and I was within my normal limits. I have to do more experimenting but I was wondering if anyone has had any similar expereinces with a new food helping your BG counts way more than you would normally think it should.
