A crap weekend coming up...........

ALSO: I always eat 3 strips of bacon sprinkled with Tumeric powder and cracked pepper. The fat slows digestion (decreasing the sugar spike) and Tumeric lowers/stabilizes blood sugar. So I eat my bacon then have a drink or two mixed with Pomagranate/Cranberry juice and lime.

Sugar Blocker 1: Have a fatty snack 10 to 30 minutes before your meals

Reason: You remain fuller longer.

At the outlet of your stomach is a muscular ring, the pyloric valve. It regulates the speed at which food leaves your stomach and enters your small intestine. This valve is all that stands between the ziti in your stomach and a surge of glucose in your bloodstream. But you can send your pyloric valve a message to slow down.

Fat triggers a reflex that constricts the valve and slows digestion. As little as a teaspoon of fat, easily provided by a handful of nuts or a piece of cheese, will do the trick, provided you eat it before your meal.
