True. But the fiber doesn't lessen the glucose spike. It just adds bulk to your stool...

Comparing a breakfast with bagels versus one with donuts is like a breakfast with grits (or oatmeal) versus one with sugar frosted flakes.

Note: all carbohydrates are converted to glucose during digestion; it is the primary source of energy for us. Excess glucose is converted to fat (for long-term storage as needed).
A glazed donut yields an instant glucose spike, whereas the carbohydrate in a hearty bagel is converted slowly throughout the morning: steady energy without the spike.

Peace!

But donuts just stay in your gut. Oat meal adds glucose spike too. Just eat a protein with the meal and no spike.
Let's say you eat a steak and have a donut for dessert. Your blood sugar will still spike when you eat the donut. It may digest slower due to the steak you ate before, but it's still a pure carbohydrate.

It's going to spike your blood sugar, and your pancreas will release a significant amount of insulin to remove the excess glucose from your bloodstream.

We all know donuts are better than bagels, right?

No one gets excited for bagels.

They are objectively worse. They come in onion flavors. You don't have to worry about an onion flavored donut.
for me definitely Bagels done this way, cant do this with a donut.....

What all is on that?
cream cheese, smoked salmon, (capers and fennel, some very thinly slices red onions) the items in () are optional. i personally do cream cheese, smoked salmon and paper thin sliced red onions. you have to try this if you have not. of course the bagels are toasted but we cant see this in the photo.

Cheers.

If we were not on carnivore, I'd make this for my husband. He loves a cream cheese bagel. He also loves capers and red onion! He prefers bagels which I think is unbelievable---hence the thread.

I haven't had sugar in years except the holidays when I tried a taste of my daughter's cheese cake. It didn't sit well and I had inflammation for a week. I do make carnivore ice cream although it isn't 100% carnivore because I use real vanilla extract and allulose, and sometimes cacao. Other than that, it is raw heavy cream, collagen powder, tallow, and beef powder... oh, and LMNT electrolytes plus lugol's iodine. Sometimes, I add some organic instant coffee. lol
I brought some to my chiropractor and she loved it ...tastes like regular ice cream.

I pick bagels! But I never met a donut I didn't like.. come to think of it.
But this thread is evil to me since I'm lo-carb, TITUS2WIFE!. lfh
It's VERY hard being lo-carb and Italian. I miss my pasta THE MOST.

The way I feel on lo carb is like night and day---- but I am not a fan of the food. I can only deal with so many eggs and meats.
I actually lose my appetite and have to force food.
