Can you add supplemental fiber to non fibrous carb containing meals and reduce the GI

[dehydromethandrotren]

Since fibrous veggies like broccoli take more energy to digest than they contain, can you get a similar effect from simply adding supplemental fiber to meals?

Why not just add fiber to every non PWO meal ?

Im basically trying to find a way to eat mildly "bad" carbs, and still keep a positive effect on my diet.

Yes, adding fiber will reduce the GI value to a meal.

yup and combining high gi carbs with low gi carbs will lower the total gi of the meal.
