Some data on desserts for those watching their glucose, ranked from best to worst 0. Dark chocolate 1. Dry Indian milk-solids (mawa/khoya) 2. Chickpea flour (besan) based sweets like soan-papdi, ladoo 3. Western-style cookies and cakes 4. Sugar-syrup based wet Indian sweets (gulab jamun, rosogolla, jalebi)

Does this mean that my diet can keep dark chocolate (in moderation) of course? I’m with you in trying to eliminate syrups and refined white rice/flour. What’s your opinion on sprouted wheat/barley/millet? These ingredients are in my morning cereal.

Haven’t tried those grains but in general most grains bear white rice and white flour Dark chocolate 70%+ and semi-sweet is pretty good but only by itself and in moderation
