Very interesting. What about a diabetic though? Why not use honey. Tupelo honey, for example, is a honey that a diabetic may consume. I wonder if these researchers used or considered honey?

Honey is still sugar, but may not have the same metabolic effects curve. I’ll have to look up Tupelo honey (I’m diabetic).

1 tsp. sugar = about 5g. carbs. Meh. Easy to compensate for.

Perhaps you should forward your medical knowledge to the Mayo Clinic. Seems they are giving out different advice to their doctors and patients.

I will be surprised to learn there is ANY honey a diabetic can eat without running their blood sugar way up.
