why are you saying that peanut butter and carrots are a good snack? what amount of carbs are in these meals? peanut butter unless you make it your self generally has a ton of sugar in it and raises your blood sugar. Also milk has a lot of sugar in it. why would you tell diabetics that? one glass of 2% milk has 12 grams of sugar in it! This is why type 2 diabetics are still getting sick.
Jedha: Nutritionist (MNutr)
LaDonna, our meals are all low carb, so before you go accusing people of telling diabetics inaccurate details, get to know us a little more. Natural peanut butter has zero sugar and zero additives, just peanuts, which is exactly what we encourage people to eat. Carrots have very little carbs, similar to a zucchini, and high fiber, more than a zucchini. We rarely use milk. In any case, people are not getting sick from drinking a little milk, but all the other high carb foods they eat. And certainly, the info we share is not making people sick, but quite the opposite, as you can see by our many testimonials.

Do eating ranch veggie dip with carrots raise your glucose and what is a good time to eat snacks morning noon or nite

Most people can snack on carrots and ranch without having a significant blood sugar rise– but the best way to know for sure is to check your blood sugar about 2 hours after your snack to make sure you didn’t rise too high. It may be beneficial to use a variety of veggie sticks (such as celery, cucumber, or pepper) to dip in the ranch, this will reduce the overall carb count as carrots do contain about 6 grams of carbs per medium sized carrot.
Snacks can be eaten at any time of day depending on when you feel hungry and your schedule. It also depends how spaced out your meals are, I would say in general most people eating every 3-4 hours. If you feel like you always “need” a snack, then you can try increasing the protein and/or fiber content of your meals to help you feel fuller between meals.
