Buckwheat farinetta is a wonderful help for insulin resistance. They contain D-Chiro-Inositol, which is helpful, especially if you have PCOS.
I buy the farinetta, which is the outer hulls of buckwheat, from Minn-Dak growers on the web. I freeze the farinetta, and when the cookies are made, I freeze the cookies. They are delicious, and balanced in protein and carb. The cookies hardly even disturb my blood glucose.
