    If you notice the morning glucose spike on this video's thumbnail, that had an interesting cause. I was pulling on a t-shirt as I was walking out of my bedroom and hit my elbow on the doorframe hard enough to leave a mark. It definitely rated a 9 out of 10 on the pain scale and per the Levels software for my continuous glucose monitor, I had a 36 mg/dL spike in my glucose. Wild stuff...
    Also, the reason I do these glucose tests on some videos (even though I'm not diabetic) is that I feel that these tests are still relevant. First, if a product spikes my glucose as a non-diabetic, I think it would be concerning to a diabetic. Second, maintaining a level blood glucose is important to metabolic health whether your diabetic or not.

    I eat 2 slices of the Lewis bread every day. My test was drastically different from yours. Preface, I am 70, type 2 diabetic and insulin resistant, taking 100 MG metforman twice daily. My starting glucose was 114, 1 hour later it was 120 and 116 at two. I don't notice more or less joint pain. I love your reviews and use them when choosing low carb foods.. Thanks for the test, this demonstrates to me that data can be very different with different people and circumstances.

      I eat 5 slices of the zero carb Lewis bread daily. I've been on Keto for 5 months, and so far I've lost 48 lbs. I'm not diabetic, but I started my journey at 307 lbs. So, I was pre-diabetic. My new doctor did my blood-work and said my sugar is "normal", and my cholesterol is "good". (This was right around Valentine's Day). I think it depends on the person as to how one's body reacts. I admit I use it as a crutch. But, when I started Keto on August 30, 2021, I had someone drop me off in front of whatever store I needed to shop in. If there weren't any electronic shopping carts, I'd call them to come and pick me back up. Now, I drive myself to the store. I never use an electronic cart, and I walk all over the store without needing a rest break.

    I am with you in that I preferred darker breads such as wheat, rye, pumpernickel, etc. when I ate bread (over 5 years ago). My downfall on the bread was the Hawaiian rolls and homemade bread (I used to be very good at baking bread). I keep some commercial keto bread in the freezer in case I have a craving, that doesn't happen too often. Your testing is very informative and definitely helps me make decisions on bread products.

    I have to tell you. I had bought the Lewis Healthy Life Keto Bread 2 days ago. That night I made for dinner 2 slices toasted. Then I spread half of a small Hass Avacado on top. On top of one toast I put scrambled egg and top the other toast with a soft boiled egg. By morning I did not feel good at all. Trying to figure it out I tested my glucose and it was 130. My chest hurt and my glucose stayed at 130 for hours before it started to come back down some...115. I drank 2 glasses of water forced myself to exercise and go walking. My husband walked with me concerned. Then I saw this video and I felt so betrayed by Lewis Co. for using bad ingredients that actually are bad for people. Thank you for caring and help weeding out (false products) as I call it.

    I've been pre diabetic for several years now and even before being diagnosed as such, I noticed that I had extreme thirst for no apparent reason. I suspected a blood sugar problem and the doctor confirmed it. High thirst is an indication of it , even if it's not constant. Mine is dependent on what and how much of certain things I eat. Now a couple of months ago I saw a yogurt drink that claimed to have no sugar. I bought it and had about half of it, even though it tasted very sweet to me. Now other times when I had extreme thirst ,it went away in several hours or at the most, 4- 7 days. This drink has allulous ( not sure how it's spelled) . My extreme thirst lasted one month. I was afraid I had become diabetic. I had to cut everything out of my diet that might raise sugar. Thank God that I was able to restore my condition back to pre diabetes. God helped me again and I'm grateful to him.

    I've been Keto for 6 years now and have tried just about every "Keto" bread on the market (and just about every other Keto product for that matter). This video affirms my experience that Keto bread is not a "set it and forget it" Keto food item when it comes to reliance on net carb theory. I've experienced the same with Carb Smart tortillas as well. I tell all people who go Keto to test, test, and test some more when it comes to different kinds of food. Make notes of what works best for you regarding glucose spike management. You will also find that everyone is a little different. What might spike my blood sugar, may not spike yours, and vice versa. Conversely, some foods you think for sure will spike you don't, while others you think are safe do. The same caution regarding net carb theory should also be applied to Keto sweets, in my experience. An interesting variable you could add to the bread tests is take a glucose reading with eating the bread alone, then add a protein to it and test again. I realize that is a sandwich test, but the protein sometimes helps to temper the spike. You may have already done some of this on other videos. Enjoy your content.

      Years ago, Dreamfields pasta promoted themselves as having a proprietary method of suppressing glucose spikes, although their carb count is pretty high. I've tested, and for me, Dreamfields works. But, I still want to try both Steve and Keto Asian's pasta when I can afford the specialty ingredients.
      Definitely test, test, test if someone wants to give the Dreamfields a try.

    Resistant starch is a starch that has been cooked then cooled. It changes a percentage of the starch to a molecular form the body does not easily digest, which slows spikes of glucose. For example cooling mashed potatoes increases resistant starch so that even when re-heated it’s got a slight blood sugar buffer.
