Glucose test, protein question

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
I have my glucose test in the morning, and have heard it's best to eat solely protein beforehand, no carbs. I can't eat eggs, so I was wondering if tofu wold be a good substitute for the protein....

Can anyone weigh in for me?

do you not eat meat? im guessing that long to digest meat sourses are going to give the best result, but im not the expert here.

I ate scrambled eggs and sausage about 90 minutes before the test started.

 

Do you eat meat?  What about a tofu and sausage scramble?  If not, I would think tofu itself would be ok.

I had a ham and cheese roll up.  I was also considering beans

I had a normal meal (mixed protein and carbs) and it worked out fine.  A protein shake would probably be great.
