| i guess the best way to find out would be to test the same carb content of different foods.
for example~
i compared a tin of potato and leek soup which was 30grams carbs
and a tin of chicken and veg soup also 30 grams carbs.
i always spike up after the leek and potato but not after the chicken and veg.
so GI and GL certainly has a lot to do with how we react to certain foods.
i can only eat around 20 grams worth of new potatoes in any dish in order for me not to spike afterwards, and the potatoes always will be served with other veggies and/or beans as a meal/soup so that the effect slows up.
ive managed to find cunning ways to replace the white goods on my plate without compromising the quality of a meal.
eating cauliflower/butternut squash for instance are much better for me.
