* Eating food in the right order significantly reduces glucose spikes: A 2015 study showed a 73% reduction in glucose spikes when participants ate vegetables, then protein/fats, and finally carbohydrates, compared to eating in any order. This applies to individuals with and without type 2 diabetes. * The mechanism involves fiber's role as a protective barrier: Fiber in vegetables creates a physical barrier in the stomach, slowing the release of glucose from carbohydrates into the bloodstream, thus reducing spikes. * Long-term benefits, including type 2 diabetes remission: An eight-week study showed that eating in the correct order, in addition to weight loss, contributed to the remission of type 2 diabetes in participants. Fasting glucose levels decreased by an average of 18 mg/dL. * Improved satiety and reduced cravings: The correct food order keeps the hunger hormone ghrelin suppressed for longer, leading to increased satiety and reduced cravings between meals. * Simplicity and ease of implementation: This "hack" requires no calorie counting, restrictive diets, or special products. It simply involves changing the order of food consumption. A "veggie starter" can be used to easily apply this principle to any meal.
