Has anyone else been working with food sequencing (veg first, then protein, carbs last) to minimize post-meal glucose spikes? I was a bit skeptical, as studies have been done only on healthy non-diabetics and Type 2s, not Type 1s. But it has made a significant difference, especially in the morning. I have a tiny salad or raw veg usually, with maybe a little bit of vinegary dressing (or not) and only then proceed to the peanut butter, plain greek yogurt etc, with the carbs. I can’t find any studies on Type 2s so thought to get some feedback here. Thanks.
@elizabethm my unqualified opinion is that by eating the carbs later, the timing from bolus to carbs is longer and a longer pre-bolus can reduce an after meal spike. I’m glad you are having great results! 
Hi Elizabeth @elizabethm, nice to see you back here. I’ll preface my remarks by saying that I’m not “afraid” of eating carbohydrates and usually consume about 230 grams of carb every day.
During my years with diabetes, I have tried eating how you describe [I didn’t have a fancy name for it] and didn’t feel as if it made much difference - then it was that BGM use was growing and I didn’t often check BG 3 hours after a meal. Right now, after discussing my eating habits with a physician, I attempt to intermix food textures when eating a meal; although I do finish my protein, potato, veggies before my desert - usually mixed fresh fruit, or last night apple pie. My BG will stay, mostly, in the narrow range that I’ve set for myself. I look mostly at where I am 4 hours after eating.
