I found one other bit of self-testing that agrees with this.
1 avacodo plus 4 TBS honey--1hr glucose 250.
The best time for honey for me was after eating some raw fatty mackeral
or 2 ounces of walnuts (1 hr glucose 124 and 130).
Two years ago I though perhaps the good sugar was flusing out old bad
sugar, but my glucose levels still go up pretty high, so I question that
theory. I had severe panceatitis, with scar tissue that shows up on
x-ray, so I may have a permanently damaged pancreas. I have no fear of
developing diabetes. I don't think diabetes is caused by natural sugar,
but the damage I have doesn't make it easy to process the sugar, and the
sugar could then have some toxic effects, if I eat too much. What I
think Aajonus has found is that people who use his diet need less
insulin, but I doubt if it has to do with eating honey.
