Good Morning, Phyllis,

There are many ways to answer your question, beside fat has no impact, but here is Dr. Sarah Hallberg's simple graph:

Quote:
What happens when we eat carbohydrates, protein and fat?

"Your blood insulin responds very differently to different macronutrients. Fat does not impact blood insulin levels. Carbs have a high impact, and protein impacts them moderately, but fat? No impact!" https://blog.virtahealth.com/revers...nd-blood-sugar/


The entire article and its videos linked above is excellent explanation of how you can reverse diabetes with diet. Dr. Hallberg of Indiana University is best known for an 18 minute TedTalk, Reversing Type 2 diabetes starts with ignoring the Guidelines https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=da1vvigy5tQ It has almost 5 million views (but your nutritionist likely won't be thrilled with it )


Also, if you re-read the Guide to Diabetes I linked yesterday (an underline here is a hot-link to more information) look at Dr. Eenfeldt's links too (his website links are Blue print, just to confuse us )

In the section "Where Sugar in your blood comes from"

Quote:
The only reason to continue to give this bad advice is the lingering fear of natural fat. If you’re going to avoid fat you need to eat more carbohydrates in order to get satiated. But in recent years the old theory about fat being dangerous has been proven incorrect and is today on its way out. Low-fat products are simply unnecessary. So this reason doesn’t hold up either.

Here is that link about Why Fat is Your Friend: https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/fat-your-friend


You could get technical and prove it yourself by eating foods with one those three macros,and testing blood sugar before and 1,2,3 hours. But it doesn't have to be complicated...all you want to do is Just. Eat. Real. Food.
