If it's possible to find a more natural version of Jell-o without all the chemicals, that will be a more GI friendly option. You could also modify a recipe to use gelatin plus whatever flavored liquid you like, and that should be safe. Best, H -------------------- Heather is the Administrator of the IBS Message Boards.
