Do you eat your potatos with either butter or olive oil? My understanding is that lipids flatten the glycemic curve.

- GordonS 4y agoYes, but unless the ratio is heavily skewed towards fat and protein, in reality it makes little difference (as tested with a glucose meter).
- omginternets 4y agoAh that makes sense. Out of sheer curiosity, can you quantify “heavily” from your experience? Are we talking about 3:1? 10:1? Also, is this by weight or by calorie?
- GordonS 4y agoYes, something like 3:1 (by weight) at a minimum, for me personally. That would extend the time-to-hypo significantly for me, from 0.5h to 1-1.5h.
