    Hi All,

    I heard that honey will not increase blood sugar level. So in Zone how honey can be used? Shall we use this unlimited?

    1 TBL of honey is 1g Carbs (as "Sugars").
    This will spike your insulin response.
    essentially 2 blocks of unfavorable Carbs.
    GI = 61 +/- 3.
    GL for 25g (20g Carbs) serving size = 12.
