Well I skimmed the middle parts but it is indeed interesting. In particular to me the ramifications with dieting. I can see where this would work. Some years back on one of my more “successful” diets I had a routine where I worked in two cookies during the afternoon as well as a late night chocolate snack into the weight watcher points allotment. I swore at the time this kept me from going crazy before dinner as well as from late night snacking. So maybe it was the glucose spikes that helped me make better food decisions and not be tempted beyond my allotment for the day.
Also back to present day – in the midst of my basement project I do notice I’m better able to discard in the earlier part of the day. Later on I tend to repack the boxes and find a way to store them. So maybe today I’ll try the old cookie snack trick and see if it works.
