5.0 EXPERIMENTS VARYING THE BODY'S DIETARY INPUTS This section describes my responses to various foodstuffs. It consists primarily of graphs that are labeled to indicate the substancesunder test. Each test is briefly discussed. The actual data points are given and connected by straight lines. In some of the graphsthis gives rise to small perturbations, rather than a smooth curve. No explanations are attempted for these perturbations. They arebelieved to be real and not simply the result of meter errors. However, it is easy to visualize a smooth curve interpolated betweenthe points to give the average BG, which is the prime interest. The main focus of the work took place over a period of about 12months and involved testing many different foodstuffs. There is a chronological factor to be considered in the results because as timeprogressed I observed improvements in my glucose system response because of the integrated effects of a different diet. Thus, forexample a BG response in November 1996 will not appear as favorable (low) as one made in July 1997. It transpires that the low-carbohydrate diet used to control the BG level on a day-to-day basis also improved my body's basic response to glucose. Thus thelow-carbohydrate diet had a compounding effect.
