Artist--I can't answer this question, but I wanted to piggyback on your post because I think you read the same stuff from Dr. Weil that I just did.
My question has to do with information in that same article that says eating foods that are high on the glycemic index "can cause rapid increases in blood sugar, prompting the pancreas to release insulin, which in turn signals the liver to pump more triglycerides into the bloodstream." It seems like a lot of the soluble fiber foods we eat, like rice, french bread, potatoes, etc. might be high on the glycemic index. I'm wondering if this has an effect as well. Since I have high triglycerides, I'm wondering if I need to rethink which soluble fiber foods I eat.
