I think casein protein is the stuff that is slower digesting/absorbing.
After establishing a baseline, would love to see an isolation for the variable of pre-soaking (activating) the chia seeds vs going in dry.I finally got some Chia seeds which this thread has made me very intrigued by. Trying them out in certain areas.I need to you run my smoothie experiment on you to test blood sugar.For the past discussion on berries and their high glycemic index, my observation from this morning of eating 6oz of blackberries was less blood sugar spike than a banana. Would probably call a third less. Roughly.
1- Smoothie A: Frozen mixed berries, plain greek yogurt, nanner and greens.
2- Smoothie B: same as above but add in Chia Seeds and whey isolate powder.
Does the protein and Chia slow down absorbing sugar into the blood stream?
From initial observations my answer would be yes, it does slow down the glucose absorption but that is preliminary. Greens = spinach?
Who's saying Doritos are good and grass fed beef is bad though?

Also, as nice as grass fed beef, we ain't feeding 330 million Americans on grass fed steaks.
Iraq, Afghanistan, Ukraine, etc, don't have god damned thing to do with the amount of US land and water available for agriculture and pasture raised cows, pigs and sheep.

The US can end poverty and homelessness too but they choose not toAt what cost? Are we going to ban consumption of industrial cow and pig in the US?
3% of US Beef is entirely grass fed at this point. But sure, there's plenty of land/water in the US as well as the overseas markets to get us to a 100% grass fed beef eating population.
It would be great if everyone in the US could eat organic grass fed /pasture raised meats + organic, fruits and vegetables, but that's la la land stuff, chief.

Missing the bigger point by getting bogged down on corn vs grass fed, champ
This is a question for the sodbusters message board.Serious question for my grass-fed beef guysm:
What is grass fed in the winter? What grass gets fed to the cattle to keep them alive when its below freezing and nothing is growing?

Hay. And hay takes a lot of land and water to produce. Half of the water used from the Colorado river goes to production of hay and alfalfa.Serious question for my grass-fed beef guysm:

It seems corn has only been around as animal feed for about 200 years, with the latest iteration since 1950.
I will finish reading later this morning.
