I need to find this study!

[@marcusstrinidad]

This is how science should be discussed. Dissecting methods and critically analyzing controls, treatments, etc. Love it

[@sonja4164]

Wow! 😲 I did not expect this result. Fascinating!

[@kofyadega5341]

Interesting conversation

[@moringaottawa]

Love that white sweater

A blood sugar spike like that damages your endothelium. You can reduce this by sipping on the smoothie rather than gulping in down in 90 seconds

[@nikolaiwhite4255]

Do you think you would take me 90 seconds to drink it that's crazy.

Clarification: was the consumption of the two items the same? Timing wise I mean

[@leroygrande8620]

Good question
