A member asked:

I suck on wint-o-green lifesaver all day &up in the night.r they fattening &bad for a diabetic. got in a habit eating them?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Diabetes: The only way you can know if your wint-o-green is good or not good for your control of diabetes is to check your blood sugar. To start you should check your blood sugar on alternate mornings and alternate nights. You should also see your doctor regularly to check your physical exam, your A1c, and anything else that is causing the doctor some concern. I don't see a diabetes medicine on your list.
