You might actually try the vinegar thing. I would not suggest that it lowers BG, rather it reduces the glycemic impact of carbs. In my experience, it has the biggest impact on the digestion of complex carbs. Give it a try, eat a specific amount of something, perhaps cooked quinoa (1/4 cup has 10 g carbs, 1g fiber). See how much your blood sugar rises. Then try the same thing, but with vinegar. All it takes is a tablespoon or two (although I just take a swig of pickle juice). My experience is that I have markedly lower blood sugar rise.

Gerri, would mind sharing that Almond flour pancake receipe? Id love to give it a whirl this weekend for the family.
I use golden flaxseed a lot in mixed forms. Its good stuff.

I heard Faxseed should be grounded to release the gases of seeds? Is that true? I would like the recipe for Almond Pancakes?

Yes, flaxseed should be ground. Gases of seeds? What gas? Like many seeds, the husk/shell needs to be broken down so that it's digestible. Ideally, flaxseeds should be ground before using because the oils it contains are delicate & become rancid quickly. A coffee grinder works great for this.
Some people eat flaxseed whole for its fiber.
I'll send you the recipe.

Here is a secret. Don't tell anyone.
I freeze both my flaxmeal and my almond meal in sealed packages away from air and very cold. That inhibits oxidation and keeps them from going rancid.

OMG! I missed all the party. I always suffer from Darn Phenomenon, so actually breakfast turns out to be important for me. I know that some people try to get real low carb at breakfast, but I've often gone for a bit higher carbs for breakfast (well relatively). One of my favorite things to do is cook up a batch of steel cut oatmeal over the weekend and then heat up a 1/2 cup for breakfast. I'll put some cinnamon and splenda on it. That coupled with a 2-3 egg cheese omellette and I am all set.
