My body reacts to whole grains worse than it reacts to refined grains. Whole barley and whole wheat breain spike my blood sugar more than refined pasta and white bread. The little extra fiber they contain is not enough to decrease sugar absorption and to make a difference but they're more carb dense. The more I test the more I realize I can eat few foods. Wheat makes me bloated, fruits with an high fructose to glucose ratio are malabsorbed by my organism and cause hypoglycemia and digestive distress, whole grains spike my blood sugar way more than sucrose, potatoes, rice and yams and old-fashioned oats have the worst effect on me.

What have you done diet-wise since your previous thread on this Board?
Just experimenting, feeling sick and finding out I don't tolerate lot of foods.
