Take that, sugar!

My lovely husband is reading a book about insulin resistance, weight loss, etc - mainly about the glycemic index. It’s sounds like an interesting and informative book.
I did get a laugh about one of the examples they gave. We all know that a can of coke is basically a big pile of sugar, empty calories. In terms of glycemic load and your insulin response, it’s a high glycemic index. The book said that adding enough spoonable fiber powder to the glass of pop, you could change it from a high index to a low index food, and it wouldn’t cause all the turmoil that straight sugar does.
My brain, of course, took me to the mental picture of tonbs of fiber in a glass of coke, and the aftermath of that much fiber. I truly have a sick mind. Maybe I should try it, document it for posterity…..hmmm….
