I’ll still always go with the bananas over candy any day any time
Same for me Dennis. A banana will spike my blood sugar like crazy & a candy bar, not nearly as bad. I don’t eat either & stick to my low carb diet. It works & Mile the Meter confirms that. 🍌 🍫 🥑

I adore these experimental videos, Dennis! “Testing” is a tremendous motivator!

1/2 the sugar in chocolate is fructose, that doesn’t raise blood glucose
Thank you, I’ve heard greener bananas are less of spike. Pair bananas with peanut butter = less spike .
Blessings
Watch Masterind Diabetes…they eat tons of fruit including bananas. You got it wrong
Saturated fat
No saturated fat in bananas. Saturated fat in candy
Ty I’m texting call the time to see difference. Surely does motivate me when numbers go high!
Meant Testing!!!
Bananas in smoothies and brown rice pasta caused me pre diabetes 😋. Once I removed all sweet vegetables and sweet fruits my blood sugar levels dropped from 6.1 A1C to 5.8 A1C. Dennis your new hair makes you look younger.
This video was done quite a few years ago, so I actually was younger.
Still love your content, still don’t have diabetes, but there’s somethin about you lol
Meds can give you false readings- I would suspect that the candy could be chemically poisonous as well as the GMO fruits. 🤷🏻♂️ What is good to eat anymore? 😢
The fat in the candy bars slowed down the digestion of the carbs. There’s no fat in bananas so the carbs were quickly utilized.
