so let’s see what this buttered popcorn does to my blood sugar this is homemade buttered popcorn I started out with 2 tablespoons of avocado oil and 1/3 of a cup of popcorn kernels and of course after it’s popped I’ve added 1/4 cup of melted butter alog together this serving has 920 calories 75 G of fat 6 g of protein 45 G of carbs and 7 G of fiber this is a pretty big carbohydrate load I’m wondering if the fiber in the popcorn and the added fat from the butter will help to slow this down a little bit let’s see what it does to my blood sugar all right it’s been a couple of hours since I’ve had the popcorn let’s have a look at the glucose monitor to see what actually happened here yeah there’s quite a spike here this went up by 39 milligram which is a little higher than I expected especially with all the fat that I put on there with that butter so in the future I may want to reduce the portion size here to help keep those blood sugar levels down I also think there was a little too much fat in there I didn’t

Try popcorn cooked in coconut oil and then toss popcorn in olive oil and salt. So good!

He ate too much
75 grams of fat in one sitting is quite a lot
The real question is where was the salt? Also why eat popcorn with no salt? 🍿😊

What if you cook it in coconut oil?
Try without butter please 🙏
3 cups of popcorn

How do you read the spike? Bc it’s all up and down… where do you start and stop the spike to get 39 mg/dL spike? Thanks
1/2 the recipe and add some nuts.

Why are you measuring your blood sugar levels?

Excellent lesson ❤ Thank you 😊
Those seed oils still mess with the glucose i'm guessing. I'd love to see a re-do with ghee to cook it and melted butter on top.
Good though.
Thank you for all your work and info sharing.
Try it again using an airpopping machine. No oil needed.
Thank you for sharing these videos. It helps me understand what can spike my blood sugar.
Popcorn is the worse food
Wow, never thought that popcorn have almost one thousand carbo 😮😅
Just air popped raises my blood sugar, and when I add butter, it still raises it. Portion is the key to this. But, it's hard for me just to eat a serving size. Lol
