Yep, but there are a lot of environmental factors that the link above talks about. Stress, Sleep, Alcohol Consumption etc. all matter and the effect varies by individual.
What was incredible was how well the glucose level predicts cravings. I just ate as I usually do and almost every time I had a sugary snack (cookies etc.) I'd notice that my glucose level was low just prior to the snack.
The goal is to find out which food is tasty, provides satiety and keeps glucose from dropping too much.
I eat an Indian + Vegetarian diet with rice being the primary carb. Rice causes pretty sharp rise in glucose and a pretty steep crash after insulin is released leading to cravings etc. One behavioral change that was permanent was that we got rid of one variety of rice that's really bad (Sona Masoori) and replaced it with Basmati. We also mostly eat Quinoa or a mix of Quinoa + Basmati for our primary carb now.
Interesting - thanks for sharing. Also - you don't cook quinoa and basmati at the same time do you? That would be a super time saving way to enjoy those two at the same time.
