I was diagnosed with diabetes 2 weeks ago. I am 29 years old. I was hospitalized in the ICU for 12 days with Diabetic Ketoacidosis and acute kidney injury. I couldn't walk or keep any food down. I was even vomiting up water. My glucose levels were in the 500, with a A1C of 14. Two weeks later, my glucose is 75 - 100 and feeling great now. I just avoid most carbs, but thank you making content like this.

100% insulin resistant type 1 diabetic here - I absolutely agree with all of this! Make sure your carbs have fiber and major spikes don’t happen. People don’t realize that even if you’re NOT diabetic you should be mindful of glucose spikes. Thanks for a great video Bobby!

I'm diabetic and have been since the age of 13, I have been treating my diabetes by my eating habits, some foods don't bother my blood sugar and other foods does raise my blood sugar, so I just flat out refuse to eat the foods that raise my blood sugar, I don't eat for entertainment, I eat for survival and my good health

Of all of your videos throughout the years, this one is top ten. Thanks again for all that you do to spread knowledge and humor. Keep it up Flav City Team !

Thank you Bobby for making this video! I’ve been awaiting for this for some time. It’s amazing how we can control our health with what we eat. Love your content as always! ❤️

Sir Bobby! Standing ovation 🙌🏼🙌🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 A Fan to all your platforms since day one ☝🏼 Thank you for sharing knowledge! Thank you for being consistent! I’ve learned sooo much from your content and have been able to plant 🌱 a seed of awareness into others as to what we put into our mouths and how the ripple affect also hurts other areas of our biological body!

So excited when you do these types of video/content. This is and was an absolutely fun watch!! Thanks Bobby!

Thank you so much for all the wonderful tips, meal idea's, and just being someone who actually is helping me become even more healthy!!! I recently sent a question about the MOSH Bars and I hope I hear from you. Glad I found you and all your content.

This was great! Please do more videos like this. I have a KetoMojo that I use to see what spikes my sugar and what doesn't but it's nice to see the items you ate that made your sugar go up and those that did not.

Thanks for video Bobby. I am prediabetic and made change and blood sugar down to 90-103. Very informative information. Keep them coming. If you get these spikes as a healthy man that should tell us all what foods to avoid especially if diabetec. These simple carbs are non nutritious and we should all take note.

Bobby!! Thank you so much for helping us all SO MUCH!! Giving us this information is priceless ❤️

Bobby thank you for sharing. I’ve been T1D over 40 yrs. Love all your encouraging information ❤

Good morning Bobby, as always love your tips. Thank you!

Hi Bobby, thanks for info. You are correct every diabectic is different. The key is to test blood sugar to see effect of each meal. I am diabectic and I have to keep my meals very low carb. Great video

This one is one of your best Bobby. Ive watched it 3x's.This was very informative. Ty

I love videos like this one. I get confused and overwhelmed when trying to shop for foods that are both healthy and won't spike my blood sugar. I know I should be monitoring my blood sugar and taking better care of myself. Watching your videos reminds me of this. Thank you.

Good morning Bobby!🌻 I just downloaded your app 2 days ago and I just wanted you to know how much I am enjoying using it! Thank you for all the work that you do and the information that you gave for a healthier lifestyle! 🍉🥝🥦🥑

i just stay away from carbs pretty much all day long. I don't have breakfast, I have a brunch/lunch of eggs/bacon or left over steak. Dinner is pretty much just a piece of meat (steak, chicken, pork, fish or a salmon patty). I may have a garden vegtable, I don't have salads very often as even the carbs from salad (with olive oil/vinegar dressing) spike blood sugars. I have been a type 2 for years now, was pregnant with last child and got gestational diabetes. ALways had hunger issue's as a growing child/teenager/young mother. Diabetes runs in cousins, fatness runs in all my relatives, they are as round around the middle as they are tall. Almost all of em die from some type of heart issue's. But most of them DRANK/SMOKED like barfly's. I do not, never did. Anyways, food is a nightmare for me, and I miss chocolate ice cream runs to the dairy queen with hubby, I miss getting a cheese cake for bday dinner celebrations. I miss chips, pretzels, choc chip cookies, french fries, mashed potato's and macaroni salads. Life is a bitch.

Thanks so much for posting this video. I have been thinking about getting a CGM to see my reaction to the foods I eat and the activities I do. So I appreciate the detail and insight you provide to us.

A good episode. Enjoyed it. Very informative.

Thanks for the great video Bobby and for taking the time to experiment with your CGM! As a pre-diabetic I've been wearing a CGM for almost 3 years now...so helpful! I'm no longer pre-diabetic, but must be mindful to keep it that way.👍 No shock on that first breakfast causing a spike! Corn, rice and flours are best for me to avoid for my blood sugar. Fiber, protein and fats will keep the sugar level. Glucose Goddess is good to follow on Instagram for others who are pre diabetic, diabetic or who have metabolic syndrome. For potatoes I do fine if I grate them, do cold bath, rinse and drain them, then saute them as hash browns...less good if baked for the blood sugar. Keep these videos coming...LOVE what you do. Appreciate your plant-based options. 💗

Thank you Bobby for your wonderful videos. Can you please do one for heart health diet. Thanks again, Marilene.

I've watched your videos before and I have saved some on IG. I just found out you have an app so I downloaded it immediately. I read every single ingredients to be more educated. I'll be using your app when I go grocery shopping. Thanks Bobby!

You mentioned that you have been doing this for 10 years. Grateful to you and the team behind you including the all favorite Rosie❤️🌹 I would like to suggest another round of vitamins video only on the Bobby approved ones please. That will be much helpful. Thank you 🙏

This was a really eye opening experiment Bobby, thank you. I’m a big fan of your channel. Here in England we have some health food shops, Costco and supermarkets like Asda (Walmart) where I live but they don’t stock the massive variety of health foods you have, I wish we did…ps…I love the way you say ‘tummy’ it’s a English word we use and it was funny to hear it in a American accent 😂

Thank you so much Bobby !! as a T2D, It’s a constant struggle trying to steer away from the foods that aren’t diabetic friendly, your tips are always so good!! You’re the best !! 😁✨

Hi I just want to stop by and thank you for your videos. I have learn a lot from you listing the things on food labels that are bad for us. I have practice what you have stated in most of the videos and it has help me with my ongoing goal to my best optimal health. Thank you and keep up the great work you are a blessing to many.

Thanks so much, Bobby! I learn a lot from you. Appreciate all you do to educate others.

As a t2 Diabetic, this was very helpful! Thank you so much! I was wondering why the whole wheat bread I've been eating never spikes my blood sugar. I thought it was just me. I'm just glad I can still eat bread.

Great to hear that you are using a monitor as is Serious Keto channel.

Thank you so much Bobby! I am a Type 2 Diabetic. I really appreciate your video and will check out Levels. God Bless you and your loved ones!

Thank you Bobby! My husband is border line diabetic and we try to do the best we can. I need to learn what and where to buy, I really appreciate it this . God bless ❤️❤️🙏🏼

I am 71 and was diagnosed with diabetes about two months ago. I ended up in the hospital with a 500+ blood sugar reading and was there for two and a half days. I'm feeling great now and am on fast acting insulin three times a day and long lasting insulin at night. My glucose readings are down pretty much in the 90s to 120 throughout the day. I stick to pretty much the same foods and have exactly the same breakfast every day - organic steel cut oats, Organic Valley full fat cottage cheese, and either organic strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, or blackberries, with brown sugar Swerve (no carb) sweetener. Mix this all up and it's a great porridge! What's funny is that after about four hours my glucose can read one day at 98 and another day at 115 or 120 - and that's with the same berries! I read up and was told at the hospital that many things besides food effect glucose readings, and I've found that out. I go by the Zone Diet Plan which is great for diabetics and I've lost 15 pounds already and have my energy back! The only high density carbs I have are the steel cut oats - 2/3 cup and that has fiber and protein. Or a piece of Ezekiel bread. The rest of my meals are protein and low density carbs. This usually keeps my glucose in check but I do have to make sure to follow a quite strict schedule because otherwise it will dip too low and that is not good either. I got very bad symptoms from the hypoglycemia a few times, so I am cautious about staying on schedule! I'm learning as I go along and my husband and I took a week's vacation a while ago and that was a learning experience of traveling with diabetes!

Bobby's intro includes a disclaimer that is his response to the foods and that he is aware he is quite metabolically healthy. It's for illustrative purposes and education. My takeaway is that if certain foods can elicit big spikes in someone like him, imagine what they can do to a diabetic or prediabetic.

I love this content Bobby!! Very powerful to actually see the difference. Keep em coming ☺️

Thank you for doing this video, you are amazing. I am a T2 diabetic struggle to make changes and doing it with not taking medication. It has been challenging and I appreciate your videos.

Love your vids... I'm a type 1 diabetic who eats low carb & takes R insulin(type1grit). I've used your vids to help ensure I'm eating healthier low carb. Be aware that whom you're mostly talking about are type 2 diabetics, as type 1 diabetics will have different reactions/needs. Thanks again!

My blood sugar just spiked while watching your high carb breakfast. I cringed at the orange juice 😂

Thank you so much for doing this and sharing what you learned. Love all of your videos!!!!

LOVE LOVE LOVE that your using a cgm to test foods! Do more tests like this!

Bravo 👏 Thank you so much for this type of content. Seeing how someone who is pretty healthy and eats well responds to simple carbs is eye opening. I can only image what kinds of spikes that I’m getting as a Type 2 diabetic. Thank you Bobby!

Since i do clean keto plus i do OMAD fasting for the past 5 weeks,and my blood sugar came way down from 420 down to 89. I stop taking all the diabetic meds. I feel much better,and i will never want to go back to those toxins meds ever

Loved this! Thank you so much! It was very interesting!

This was awesome information i have twreaked my keto diet in line with your testing I appreciate this so much thank you Bobby

I'm hearing more and more people getting the Dexcom or Freestyle meters. I have used both as a T2 diabetic. Please take note that you still need a fingerstick glucose monitor to calibrate the ongoing meter. Sometimes you get a sensor that can be 70 points off! You constantly recalibrate. Then you might get one that's pretty close. Also note the Dexcom and Freestyle are about 15 minutes behind. The fingerstick is accurate. It's also very expensive and a lot of insurance is a pain about it even for diabetics.

Much relief after going through this stuff kzfaq.infoUgkx-ip-9JdKgYMhubLnEjt3OXJkFyS4D2Jd Stress no doubt affects my blood sugar levels. Taking a walk usually help bring them down. Eating sweets is not my favorite, but if i take a large portion of them, my blood sugar level rises high. I think it's the high concentration of the glucose flowing into the bloodstream all at once. This is a lesson worth taking note of. This is a great material to learn from.

This was an excellent video distinguishing the three types of meals and how they did or did not spike your blood sugar. As a type II diabetic, this was extremely helpful. I appreciate the time spent producing these in-depth reviews, etc. thank you so much for categorizing the meals and how they affected your blood sugar. It allowed me to know that I want to eat complex carbohydrates mostly but keto products such as rice. Thank you again and keep up the great work.

It was very informative as usual Bobby thanks

I would love for you to do an episode for all types of sugars especially monk fruit, plus I'm a avid watcher of videos great content!!!!!!!!!

What an informative video, Bobby. The explanations of blood sugars (cause & effect) combined with food suggestions. Appreciated! 🙌🏻

This was a very interesting video. I would be very interested in any other videos that you make using the Levels tool to keep track of your blood sugar levels.

A very educational video! Thank you so much. I’m pre-diabetic. I hope you will do more of these videos. Even meals would be nice using your device. Hello to your family! 😀

Please make a longer video for KZfaq on the resistant starch experiment...sounds interesting and seems like it would need a longer video. Thank you for the info!

More of this type of video please

Thanks Bobby! For always experimenting and showing us what to eat and not to eat. You’re my fav!

I’m a type 1 and love these type of videos. Keep it coming 😊

Thank you SO much for this video. As a "new" type 2 diabetic this gives me hope that I can have good meals but keep the blood sugar under control. Thanks once again. Please on occasion continue doing videos like this for those of us who are diabetic.

Super informative! I guess I can continue eating my Trader Joe’s sprouted sourdough bread! Thank you for keeping us informed with real information and not just what these food marketing giants want us to see.

Hello Bobby!!👍👍 Thanks for sharing this great video and this great information thank you again!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

I love this data! Thank you. Have been wanting to do a CGM. Doing it soon!

Sorry but I will disagree with you. Get a diabetic friend and retest the same foods. Remember that you are coming from a metabolically healthy state. I have seen a couple of people on KZfaq test the resistant starch theory and found that it still spikes blood sugar. Doesn't alcohol kick you out of keto as the liver has to process the alcohol?

Which you would do this with Walmart, target, or aldi Food stores, I feel most of us don’t live near a Whole Foods or Trader Joe’s.

I always learn so much from you! Thank you!

Good job. Thanks for all the good food ideas.

I'm Type2 diabetic who must inject insulin R a half hour and before eating anything. This video is very helpful so I will try some of the products you tested and see what it does to my Blood sugar spikes. I wear a Freestyle Libre 2 and it works OK . Thanks for your effort in doing this research.

Being Type 2 Diabetic, I'm not sure how accurate this information will be coming from someone who isn't Diabetic at all. I feel the results will be far different on someone like myself, but I still appreciate the info.

Hey thanks for posting this man this is useful.

Thank you for sharing your journey

Being diabetic type 2, spikes take longer to come down then someone that not is diabetic. spikes are higher and longer since, the sugar has no place to store in your cells.

Ezekiel bread, peanut butter and banana. 1 large cup of coffee black nothing added but a filtered ice cube.

Great 👍🏻 video!!👏👏👏Thank you 🙏🏻 so much for making this very valuable video!!! I hope you’ll do another one with potato salad, smoothies, and various fruits.

thnx for this, hope you do more of this!

T2D here, have to eat ketovore to maintain a 5.6 A1C. If I eat ANY carbs, I can get a blood glucose spike that lasts 8 HOURS or more!

1:31 My child is diabetic and wears a Dexcom G6. Thanks for doing this! We would never give him jam with sugar or Orange juice unless he had taken too much insulin and was going low. It's so hard to guess what foods will do, but these are obviously rough to dose for. Sola makes keto bagels but I've never tried them with him. I'm sometimes pleasantly surprised by a food not reacting as bad as I would think, and other times I'm shocked that something low carb causes a huge spike. Meat will actually cause a spike. Weirdly, vegetarian chili does better than meat chili because the meat causes him to stay high a long time. That's why a lot of keto Type 1 ppl use Regular insulin, not fast acting. Meat causes slow rises.

Pls make more videos like this, very helpful and informative

Thank you for doing this, I need this!!

Hi Bobby, maybe also look into the effect of changing the order in which you eat things or how different foods interact with each other. For instance: combining carbs with fat can also decrease the insulin spikes. So maybe try rice with coconut fat or ghee.

I was diagnosed as a type 2 diabetic a year ago and my latest a1c was 5.7. These ideas work, people! Eat well, exercise, take your meds! And then you have less meds to take!

Bobby my husband and I always love your content. Alot of times we have bought alot of Bobby approved items because we are on the same train of thought, we appreciate you doing the foot work 😀 👍

thank you Bobby I learn so much and I truly learn from you.

I am a type 1 for 25 years. I wear a pump and I CGM. Completely different from someone playing around with a CGM. Actually, in my case no comparison. Everything turns to glucose. I take very good care of myself. Lots of trial and error.

Thank you so much for this video. I am pre-diabetic, so I am very careful about carb intakes. The alternative bread options would make my life a little happy! :) By the way, I use your app, and it is super helpful! Overall, you helped me so much!

Really great review. I’ve been considering one of these!

Yesssss! Isn’t kitehill cream cheese the best?! Thanks for being open to vegan alternatives, small changes make a difference! And you being a role model to so many, your recommendations and approved products have a huge impact! It would be interesting to see your glycemic response on a fully plant based meal! Vegan/plant based tends to be higher carb but also depending on you choices can be high protein and definitely high fiber.

I am diabetic and I can say I do not eat any grains anymore . It did work for a couple years but I am keto / carnivore now. I just slowly got worse. Now I am lots better and off all my insulin and meds.

That glucose monitor, he said "$200 per year", it's $200 per month!

I just found your channel today so i don't know your background but I have had type 1 diabetes for 25 years and i can tell you you know more than most doctors i've seen. Bravo. I wear a dexcom myself :)

Thank you for sharing ur knowledge..interesting video.

My mother was type 2 diabetic and we found that high fiber and protein along with a good red wine kept her levels really even.

As a mom of a Type 1 Diabetic, I hate when people just say, “Diabetics” as if they are all the same. Type 1 and Type 2 are completely different. And most times, people saying “Diabetics” are specifically discussing Type 2s.

Just love this challenge, study, research. So fun and educational to watch!

Some really great information!

I would suggest to anyone who is type 2 diabetic (and pre-diabetic), to also check out Dr. Ken D. Berry's videos to get educated on what to eat/not to eat. He talks about the "proper human diet".

Hi Type 1 diabetic here - I wear a sensor. You didn’t address this during the video but how many times a day did you calibrate your sensor, for accuracy? Thanks -

Thank you Bobby! Love your tips!

This is amazing! So many times I feel overwhelmed just thinking of what I can eat that’s not chicken and veg.

Hey Bobby you need to do this test with a diabetic and see how he fares

All the people saying that this test was stupid or not helpful doesn’t actually understand what he is doing. He never said he is diabetic just testing Bobby approved foods on a healthy non diabetic person. Everyone not just diabetics should start monitoring blood sugars after they eat!

This was invaluable!ty Bobby for doing this..

Thanks for the information 👍 I love to watch ur videos
