so I had another question recently is it

okay to consume potatoes if I’m a

diabetic okay let’s just let’s discuss

that well there’s a thing called a

glycemic index and that’s how fast the

food will turn into sugar in your blood

and raise the blood sugar a baked potato

is between 84 and 111 so a high glycemic

index would be anything above 70 so this

is pretty high okay because you’re

cooking the potato you’re probably not

going to consume the potato raw

boiled is 82 instant potato is 97 so

it’s gonna raise your blood Sugar’s way

more than you want

so really want to keep your

carbohydrates low now if I was a

diabetic

I would keep my carbohydrates below 20

grams per day because the American

diabetic Association recommends between

135 and 230 grams of carbohydrates every

single day that is going to create

diabetes there’s quite a few studies

that show that low carbohydrate diets

will improve your blood Sugar’s and

improve a1c which is an average blood

Sugar’s of three months I’m going to put
