Legumes contain higher quantity of fibre than grains. So breaking down of legumes while digestion is slower compared to grains. So the net effect on BS rise is less. Dals will have comparatively less effect as the skin is removed. Sprouting converts some part of carbs to proteins and some to other nutrients. For e.g. Sprouting mung will reduce its carb content by nearly 15%.

Both replies by Indiacratus and Srisamarth is good As per myanother discussion about diet I amalready informed to change mydiet some portions of breakfast to pulses for which sprouted pulses like moong dal or bengal dal and anyotherdal or roundmixed with masala ( We called it as USALI ) So it may be some portions of carb isreduced ?

Further both of them I want to clarify if Glynase MF ormetformin may side effect ? If long used is is harmful to Pancrease ? Whether Triglyceroide normal value is less than 100 or less than 150 ? thanks

What you call usali we call it usal. It is part of my daily meals. :) If you are consuming sprouts (cooked) then it is better alternative to grains. Compared to same amount of grains it has less carbs and high fibre.

It is better to have triglycerides <100. But more than that TG/HDL ratio is important. <3 is better and <2 is best.

Metformin is most safe drug in diabetes. Glipizide stimulates beta cells in pancreas to secret more insulin whether it is needed or not.

A very accurate and scientific explanation. Sprouts are always better as several nutrients are added by thr process of germination. For example moong does not contain all essential amino acids, but when sprouted a couple of essential amino acids are added to make it a complete protein.
