I am a 65 YO pre diabetic following a keto diet. A few years back I was working with a nutritionist and she had been to a seminar and learned about "resistant starches." For weeks she experimented with me trying to prove that resistant starches would not spike blood glucose. I ate all sorts of proposed foods and tested like crazy. After three weeks I pulled the plug. Not one time did my blood glucose not spike after consuming a resistant starch. Fats and oils did blunt the spike in some cases and speed the return to status quo in others; but there was a spike every time. Thanks for the video. The moral still is: starch is still starch not matter how old or how cold.

Just to close the loop on a few things after this video: 1) Nothing else was different from my regular way of eating the rest of the week that I recorded this video. I was still doing intermittent fasting and eating keto. Despite this, I went up 2.2 lbs over the course of 4 days. My stomach looks noticeably bloated. I feel inflammation in left knee (my bad knee), especially when going up stairs. Fortunately, I don't feel as crummy as after the potato video. 2) Even after the massive glucose spike in the supposedly "resistant" starch rice, my ketones were back to .9 the next morning. 3) Some people though I said my ketones were 8.8, even though the meter said "0.8". I actually said, "A point eight".

Glad you got that original info from Sri Lanka. Sounds like they have done more research since I talked with the friendly grad student running that test (he was at Princeton, when I got ahold of him-and he actually left the lab to talk with me on the phone.) He told me he thought it was the MCTs, so I tried making it with MCT oil, but I decided it was still not worth my time, given availability of riced cauliflower. Don't remember my specific experience anymore, and can't explain their results, but we both came to the same conclusion: forget it.

It's only a small amount of carbs, I would have been shocked if you weren't back in ketosis the next day. As the days go on, you should have got better at handling carbs, being in constant ketosis turns on many glucose sparing pathways, which degrades over several days. Which is why you should always have several days of carb eating before doing a oral glucose test. So ideally each test should have been done like a week apart. Other thing I realise watching this, a cup of rice looks pointless to eat and probably why I'm so over weight. 4 servings before start to get excited. Said it before not surprised by result. Stuff I've read, yeah resistance starch is a thing, but it converts a tiny fraction of the carbs. It might have reduced the carb count by like half a gram. I still want a CGM, just all far to expensive, hoping someone realise a sensible one, or that these new watched based ones are reasonably accurate(no idea if they are or not, just guessing they aren't)

Hats off to you sir, back many many years ago when "they" were telling everyone you could not eat eggs and that eggs were bad for you I did the same thing by asking my doctor for blood work then I ate eggs for breakfast, lunch and dinner for more than a week. I then asked my doctor for more blood work and I saw the truth in my body as to how it reacted to eggs. I then did a 7+ hour glucose tolerance test on Atkins when that was still relatively unknown in the United States. I ended up with so many needles in both arms I had black and blue bruises for days afterwards on both arms but I had seen the truth to how my body reacted on and off Atkins. No one could tell me the latest "they say you need to..." type of statements anymore because I knew "they" would never do themselves what I did and tell me.worh a straight face what they were about to tell me we all need to be doing. I saw them for what they were, marketing employees for some company wanting to introduce a new product or sell a new drug or service. It warms my hear to see someone this many years later with the same I am going to see what my body really does instead of listening to the "they" crowd of marketers. I do think the tools to do this have gotten much more convenient and easy today with modern sensors and smart phones.

The Persian method of cooking rice is also very helpful in reducing starch. 1) Wash the Rice several times in a large container/pot until the water is clear. 2) Drain the rice and place it in a pot uncovered, add plenty fresh water (as if it is a soup), and a teaspoon of salt, and bring it to boil. 3) After 3-5 minutes of boiling (when the rice grain easily breaks if you bite it), drain the rice in a sieve. 4) pour additional water on the rice in the sieve to remove more starch and the salt. 5) Place the drained rice in a pot and add 1/2 cup of water for every 1 cup of rice. 6) Cook it covered, on low/medium heat for about 30/40 minutes. 7) The rice grains will come out beautifully cooked without too much starch. Added Note: If you add some butter or fat to the rice after cooking, or eat any carb with some kind of fat or protein, the absorption rate of the carb is drastically reduced.

Oh wow that was surprising!! I agree that once you no longer have bread/rice/pasta as a staple you don’t really miss it after a while. I took a couple weeks off keto around the holidays because I’ve been struggling in general lately and wanted to give myself a break (and mostly I just wanted to eat all the sugar). My nephew wanted Olive Garden so we went and I didn’t realize until afterward that I’d ordered the chicken margherita, something I can still eat on keto. I didn’t really want the pasta when it was an option. I did eat so much sugar I made myself sick for weeks, though. But the bread/pasta/rice wasn’t something I indulged in often even when I gave myself that freedom. January I cut out all sweeteners all together since I am clearly and addict and sugar alcohols are gateway drugs that kept me hooked. It’s getting easier now that I am 27 days without. I don’t have as hard a time at night wanting a pint of Rebel, lol. Anyway, sorry for the rambling and thanks for the video!

Thanks a bunch for your yeoman's work in the keto field, Steve. (There was once a time when one had to cross a certain threshold before donating one's body to science!) FYI, I've been using another resistant starch -- potato starch -- as a thickener for pan gravy. Quicker and better than wheat flour, easier and less jellied results than arrowroot flour (just add from a fairly small-hole shaker and whisk thoroughly). About 1-2 tsps for a pot roast pan, and of course there's a fair amount of fat in there, most of which is absorbed -- but it's definitely not a roux-type sauce!

I started keto diet two months ago and I love it. I used to eat lots of carbs like bread, sweet potatoes, rice, pasta and etc. I was always hungry and tired. I still miss eating sweet potatoes time to time. I was so happy to find out about resistant starch last week. I bought two large sweet potatoes, boiled them for one hour then kept them in the refrigerator over night. I warmed up a small piece of sweet potato with butter, cinnamon and coconut milk. I checked my blood sugar 30 min, one hour and two hours after eating. Unfortunately my blood sugar went up to over 120 after 30 min then went down to 100’s after 2-3 hours. I also had mild pain in my left knee that afternoon. I have moderate arthritis in my left knee and suffered from pain until I started Keto diet. No more pain until I ate sweet potato. So I had to stop eating sweet potato. I am very disappointed about resistant starch stuff!!

I won't have any problem rejecting the rice if my experiment isn't successful. I also don't miss pasta. It's potatoes that I miss the most. I had some success and failures trying the cook, chill and consume method and may try again at a later time.

Hey Steve, I wanted to let you know your doing a great job! 👍 I also wanted to tell you to try Healthy Noodles sold at costco! I've been doing keto for 4 years and have tried everything on the map to scratch my noodle itch. I was always disappointed or at most simi happy. They blow miracal noodle out of the water. Not even in the same category. Long story short, try the "Healthy noodle " you will be glad you did.

The definitive answer .. Thanks mate Looks like the folks who came up with the idea should be enjoying a stay in one of Her Majesty's hotels Along with the people who sold us seed oils, processed foods and the low fat diet

Steve, I'm sorry for your joint pain. I splurged 1.5 years ago, when in France (gift of a lifetime). Of course...bread, pastries, wine...etc! My knee had to be replace 5 months ago! Worth it? Jury's still out!

I love this experiments, thanks for beeing the lab rat ;o) Resistant starch might not work, but what it shows is that you are metabolically flexible and that fat and starch together obviously are not bad as you can hear all around. To me to be able to switch between ketones and glucose at one point in my future is the goal and what our bodies should be able to. Right now I'm in between keto and low carb to get healthy again.

Thank you for doing these tests. I rarely eat rice I don’t make it for my family I just avoid it and pasta too. Very rarely do we have potatoes. My cheat meal will definitely be probably Chinese food and I will eat a little bit of rice but it’s rare the thing that has sustained me the most is intermittent fasting

I have found that fried rice is the easiest to “fake” with cauliflower rice. I cook frozen riced cauliflower in the microwave, then fry it up in a pan with scrambled egg, onion, and toasted sesame oil and it was every bit as satisfying as real fried rice. The toasted sesame oil really sells it.

Very interesting! I think if I was to incorporate a higher carb food back in my diet, it would have been rice. I appreciate the info!

Wow.....that was quite the spike there. And to think that people say rice is healthy for diabetics makes me shake my head.

Hiya, new viewer, just found your channel. Great stuff! Thanks so much for doing these tests. There's not a lot of folks willing to go to these lengths to test out blood glucose reactions, so these are like gold here on youtube. Also, tooootally random side note, but I couldn't get out of my head how much you and you're segments remind me of a cherished local Seattle celebrity Pat Cashman, from Almost Live fame.

I can't thank you enough for being our guinea pig.🐖 These videos, though a little disappointing 'cause we all prayed for that little rice miracle, were entertaining and educational. Thank you from the fam! 👨👩👧👧🤡 THANKS, STEEEVE! 💃🏻💞 P.S. The clown is the 17 year old boy.😝

I have tracked my A1C and just recently went a bit over and am now prediabetic. It is insane to me how many docs and nutritionists have pushed me to brown rice. There is a lot of nuance to it but i am wanting to completely control my blood glucose with no spikes and I simply have found I cannot control it with any rice. Thanks for your efforts!

I used to crave rice with butter while I was pregnant and ever since lol. I hate rice without it. I would add at least 2 TBs to about a cup. I can’t get away with it though and not gain weight. Bummer. I’ve been keto for over a decade though. This test is interesting because I always wondered why I simply MUST have fat with any starch (if I have any). It makes sense now.

Actually it was the last shirt was so entertaining and appropriate! Thanks for the experiments. I don't really miss rice, but I hate trying to pretend cauliflower is rice! Lol. I have had some rice 2 times in the last year and it just didn't taste as good. I do miss pasta though. But I can use spaghetti squash and it is pretty good - not pasta but tasty! There's all types of pasta Steve, even made without wheat. I will be looking forward to your tests!

Very interesting. I would normally not eat rice without a protein. I would do a stir fry with beef or chicken and veggies. Another option would be rice with a meat in a low carb tortilla burrito. I also like to cook a pot roast with potatoes and the next day make beef & potato with cheese burritos. On keto, I consider that a big cheat assuming it likely causes a spike. The potatoes sop up the beef juice while in the pot, so your experiments make me wonder what potatoes with beef juice does. While on keto I have found cauliflower rice a good substitute for rice. I microwave it for 5 minutes and squeeze the moisture out of it, then stir fry it in a skillet with spices and meat. I have not found anything close enough to potatoes to use as a substitute. Potatoes are one of the things a really miss on keto, so finding a way to prepare them that I could get away with having a potato once in a while would be so nice. TFS
