And in general, we can say that anytime we ingest fiber and/or fat, lipids, along with a particular food, it will reduce the glycemic index of that particular food, either the absolute level of blood glucose that a particular food causes or the rate at which that elevation in blood glucose occurs.

the fiber actually slows the absorption of the fat much like it does with glucose as well
