Well, I hope everyone had a great Super Bowl evening, I sure
did! But my fasting blood sugar this
morning is really high from the food, so I won’t mention it now. But I will starting next day after
Valentines, Feb. 15th, a Thursday.
It is also the new moon, a great time to start any new project. This test will record what happens to my
fasting blood sugar when I take 1.2 grams barley grass daily. Of course this also means I need to follow
the net 1200 calorie diet very carefully during that 2 month test, so that my
fasting glucose numbers are not blown out by party food. That will be a two month test to see if I can
achieve a 25% reduction in fasting glucose, as the clinical trial participants
did.
So, on to the net 1200 calories for today, with exercise. Barley cereal and barley bread will be two servings daily on the 1200 calories. If you are not using barley cereal, and barley bread, you would not be getting the increase in insulin sensitivity that I have experienced. That has taught me that I want those two servings a day of barley. Substitute as you will. Paleo cereals that are grain free are a good substitute, but won't do the job the way barley does.
