No, I already pointed out the differences between the 3 types of carbs as I see them. Here it is again.

"1) The simplest sugars like table sugar - sucrose have considerable reactions in the body.

2) Fruit sugar has less but still noticeable sugar reactions.

3)Brown rice and oatmeal, even after cooking, have the least sugar spike along with many other complex carbs. "
