    I was surprised by this glucose spike:

    The same pinto beans at lunch became an unexpected spike at supper time. Google claims overcooking to mush makes the complex carbs easier to digest and recommends refrigerating them first.

    Also recommended fresh baked bread be refrigerated, which also significantly decreases its glycemic index.

    But tbh, who's going to do that unless they're already severely insulin-resistant, and on meds for it? :p
