The bran itself is not the culprit . . . but both Bran Buds and All-Bran are loaded with sugar and HFCS (high fructose corn syrup). Raisins, whole wheat flour & even the carrots, can all spike us. Coconut alone isn't bad, but most of what we're offered is sweetened coconut. There are sources for unsweetened coconut, but you prob'ly aren't going to find it on the shelves at Walmart!
I'll be on the lookout for muffins made with plain old millers bran - that's what I always used in my bread recipes back before D put a stop to my bread consumption. Maybe some of our creative cooks can come up with something using almond or coconut flour or another alternative. How are you with soy products?
