Protein pudding - is it actually healthy for you? Remember, just because a package is labeled with protein or it has a protein badge on the front. It doesn’t necessarily mean that the ingredients are all good for you. I always turn the package over and read through the ingredients. Things like modified food, starch, modified cornstarch, maltodextrin, these are all high glycemic index foods and will cause a rapid increase in blood sugar. Carrageenan also has been shown to upset and disrupt the gut. For a healthy source of protein, try my GLO protein powder! All my GLO protein flavors shipping now! 🔗in my profile OR coachgabbi.com!
