I like to spice it up a bit, add about a tsp of tumeric to the water and 5-8 dashes of Franks red hot sauce ( I put that stuff on everthing!). I have replaced all the white foods that spike my bloodsugar and its been working great. White potatoes have been replaced with sweet patatoes, White rice with brown rice or quinoa, white bread with rye bread or tortillas.
