I noticed already several months ago that broccoli has some superior effects for my diabetes: it
seems that it can decrease the quantity of insulin required (for the meal with broccoli, not curing
diabetes...).
When I eat my favorite "baked broccoli with potatos" (broccoli with potatos 50:50, cheese, egs,
cream - baked in an oven) I noticed, that the amount of insulin is say by one third lower than for
"normal" meal with the same amount of carbs. It works also for pasta with broccoli, but always with
a relatively big amount of broccoli.
My theory is that the amount of broccoli slows the digestion so much that some carbs get never
digested and never get to the blood stream.
Just an idea, if you want some meal for a full stomach...
