| Hi fiber bran muffin. Hi everyone;
I know these are high carb no doubt, but Linda wanted me to give this recipe. I have found success in eating one with my eggs and cereal in the morning as well as with my evening meal and getting very good readings. Maybe its something else, but my original eating pattern was to include the high fiber items with my meals which I had sort of gotten away from.. My numbers were getting higher so I started looking at the fiber as an aid to keeping the peaks lower and more spread out. For my self this appears to work. I would be interested to see if some others get the same results or does it just cause a spike for them? This recipe was modified by my mom to make it more low carb by a bit.
