I just realized that this thread is 3 pages long but the OP has not posted at all anywhere, not even in this post. Has he had any success? Has he givin up?RB
You guys know of any good sources of non-filling carbs aside from dextrose? I'm trying to cut back on sugar, and been eating a lot of rice and potatoes lately. Problem is those things are filling as hell. Any suggestions?
That's the problem with trying to stick to mostly whole foods. They don't have the calorie or carb density of more processed or "junkie" carbs. If your trying to avoid the dirty route a "cleaner" solution would be to drink you carbs. Although filling, it is less filling than trying to chew down plates of rice or various potato products. Plus it also gets in and out of your system much more quickly. One option is to supplement your whole food meals with few big shakes made with lots of waxy maize or karbolyn (both much more ideal than dextrose as they has a much lower osmolality**See below). Waxy maize is usually flavorless and just adds some thickness (which I like texture wise) so you could add a little delicious flavored protein powder or do what I do and add it to some All American EFX Karbolyn Strawberry Strike flavored (so delicious). I can't afford to make massive carb shakes on Karbolyn alone so cut it with next best thing (waxy maize). Sometimes making things delicious and palatable is worth the extra price.**From an article by Bill Wills: The problem with dextrose/simple sugars in general: In spite of warp-speed absorption in the small intestine, glucose/simple sugar solutions (unless they are VERY dilute) have an extremely high osmolality. This delays gastric emptying into the small intestine, where carbs are actually absorbed. Worse, in the context of an intra-workout nutrition shake, you aren’t only delaying the delivery of carbs; delivery of those fast acting (and generally pricey) protein hydrolysates will also be delayed.
Jasmine rice is a very “clean” high GI source for carbs for those wanted to incorporate some whole food options. I've seen it's GI listed at 109…pretty high.

As with jelly beans, what about liquid glucose?
A much better measure for you to concentrate on would be the Insulin Index (II). Kiefer has mentioned in the past that for non-diabetics GI is basically a useless proxy of blood sugar and as far as CBL and CN go II, which informs us of the postprandial insulin response to a certain foodstuff, is a much better proxy.As far as what's been recorded Jelly beans elicit the highest II response followed by refined cereals, pancakes, sweets and potatoes.
