To reduce an insulin spike, one should eat at least half the grams of protein that are in the carbohydrates. Example: if you are eating 30 grams of carbs, then be sure to eat with at least 15 grams of protein.

This is really interesting. Until, like yesterday, I used to eat a lot of honey (like 4+ tablespoons) with my salad but never really noticed a weight gain. However, I did eat that honey with A LOT of protein (about 1.5lbs of fish/seafood and an egg).
I have since given up the honey to try and drop a few more pounds.
But your note was very interesting.
