Well everyone will have his own opinion and I respect that.

My opinion:
-Banana's have a GI of 51 and a GL of 10, I would not call that low.
-11 banana's in relatively short time will cause big blood sugar spikes and drops no matter what the rest of your diet looks like. Anyway, that's my belief from experimenting with it.

Good luck on the rest of your trial, I'm enjoying reading about it very much.
