What to eat (and not eat)

[aaronatthedoublef]

Listened to an interesting podcast this week here.

The doctor here raises some interesting ideas about us not processing glucose correctly but I ended up with more questions than answers. I'm a big fan of Bari Weiss but I really wish that they would have someone who actually new about food interviewing the doc.

And some of this is not new. There has been a lot of work at Yale about foods low on the glycemic index. It's probably happening other places too but when you're in CT Yale is the BIG dog!

Spread the word

It still isn't clear just what makes some foods lower on the glycemic index than others, it probably has to do with things other than the sugars and starches, like what's in the sourdough culture or the bran and germ in whole grain flours.

Aaron--I agree with your point that it is better to have someone who knows about food when discussing the science. It is an issue that bugs me with some nutritionists who focus on the food values but not on how it all comes together in a recipe.
