I used to like watching House...and other medical dramas until I lived one. There’s something about being on a ventilator and in a coma for a month or so that changes you...
Maybe the author should consult with a doctor before posting nonsense.
Exactly, white bread is basically starch. Wheat bread is starch with the bran and germ remaining. But the germ and bran are only a small part of a wheat grain (guessing maybe 10 percent?), so the difference they make is small. Or at least that’s what I would expect, and my experience seems to bear this out. Both white and wheat bread eaten on an empty stomach can set me up for a sugar “crash”.
I think the benefit of whole grain breads is separate from the sugar issue. I think it’s mainly that compared to white bread they’re higher in fiber and nutrients. It’s kind of like fruit juices versus soft drinks. Fruit juices are much more nutritious but they’re still pretty hard on your pancreas.
In some persons it will in fact make them dizzy. That's one way I usually know mine is up. At 170/120 if it gets that high I can't hardly stand up. At 145/100 I get a headache as well. Blood pressure does indeed effect equilibrium. It whoever wrote this doesn't think so let theirs do a sudden drop. Yes I take BP Meds. No they do not cause me dizziness. Bad Inner Ear issues do that much for me.
The chocolate gave you a sugar rush, triggering brain stimulus, being a teen-age boy what did your brain think about?? There goes the hormones, and here comes the acne.
So I have scientifically proven that chocolate does cause acne in teenage boys and I cite bill1952 as my peer-reviewed (start reviewing peers) double-blind (I don’t need to look at the keys when I type) case study.
