Dear Orpha,

  You said:

<<Do any of you that limit carbs eat potatoes with skin?>>


  **  If one did, one would not be limiting carbs.

  A potato skin actually adds about half a gram of carbohydrares to a
potato.

  You mentioned before that you read the skin absorbed some of the "sugars"
in a potato.
This is not truly the case but if it was you'd still be getting this by
eating the skin.

  Starches are not eaten on a low carb dietary regimen.  They're too high on
the glycemic index.  This makes it difficult for people who are insulin
resistant (all people with diabetes are) to properly assimilate the food.

Regards,
Catherine
