It started off as a fad, but more people are taking resistant starch seriously now. Take your favorite carbs, cook them, then refrigerate them for a while before eating. The result is harder for the body to metabolize, thus spiking your blood sugar significantly less and acting a lot like fiber (i.e., cleaning out your gut as it passes through). I should do some tests on myself.
But that misleading clickbait image has gut to go.

BigHominid's Swollen, Dangling Modifier is the general site—the front door, if you will. Bad Online English is the free site. The Grammar Growl is the paid site, with in-depth content and an actual curriculum. Creative Stuff is where you'll find essays, poems, and images. Games, Puzzles, etc. is where you'll find games and puzzles. Test Central isn't a Substack site, but it's where the in-depth quizzes, tests, answers, and explanations can be found. More Substacks to come as I develop new courses and keep adding features! Check back.
We've actually tried this with potatoes. They ended up tasting like crap. No idea if it affected my blood sugar, but it sure did affect my enjoyment of said potatoes.
ReplyDeleteHow far did you go with that experiment? You can apparently reheat resistant starch, so for example, you can microwave or oven-bake a goguma, then fridge it overnight, then reheat it for breakfast the day.
