A new study reports that consuming olive oil before carbohydrates blunts the early rise in blood glucose in mice. Researchers link the effect to hormones that regulate gastric emptying, suggesting that the order in which nutrients are eaten influences glucose responses. The findings come from animal research, so effects in humans are not yet confirmed, but people online are sharing it as encouragement for the common habit of eating fats before starches.
Why now: It offers a simple, actionable eating-order tip backed by new research on glucose control.
