Mendosa has a fair bit of info on Dreamfields on his website. It really does seem to work for me as well, with +2 hour readings of 120-130 as opposed to 180+ with regular whole wheat or even wheat and soy pasta. I have had it spike my numbers once, out of around 20 times of testing after eating it. I have also read that if you overcook it or cook it IN a sauce the 'protected' carbs become unprotected. They have actually done something (proprietary) to the carbohydrate molecules themselves to make them less digestible. They claim a clinically tested GI rating of 13. It makes me a bit 'windy' and causes some intestinal distress for my wife, to the point where she won't eat it, so I just cook two seperate batches.
