Eat Your Carbs Last

A new study by researchers at Weill Cornell Medical College has found that eating your protein and vegetables before your carbohydrates resulted in lower blood sugar and insulin levels after the meal — by up to 37 percent, compared to when carbs were eaten first. “Based on this finding, instead of saying ‘don’t eat that’ to their patients, clinicians might instead say, ‘eat this before that’,” said the lead researcher.
