I see pearl barley has a glycemic index of around 25, about half that
of many other 'bulk' carbohydrates. Does anyone use it other than in
soups, for example as an alternative to rice in curries, or in place
of pasta or potatoes (those of you who can eat such things, that is!)?

I took my BG 2 hours after eating dinner and it was at 68. I drank one
