Try something that is more complex. Look for food with a lower glycemic rating.



Peanuts are my go-to.

I have a piece of thin sliced whole wheat bread or cracker gobbed with no sugar added peanut butter (21) and a glass of whole milk.(27) Sometimes, I have low sugar chocolate milk (160 calories in 8 oz just like whole milk.) (35)

The salt in peanut butter can help with salt needs.

** re: "A little bit of sugar can't hurt unless you are diabetic or borderline. " For some of us, that sugar starts a cascade of events. It is an inflammatory food.

There is a term..... tryagnostics. You try different things to diagnose the problem.
