A member asked:
Will drinking 6 ounces of v8 (a lowish gi drink, but has sugar) affect 2 hour, post postprandial readings if consumed 30 minutes before checking?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Of course...: When you drink V8 (or for that matter any juice that is sugar-sweetened) 30 minutes before checking, your reading represents a 30 minute postprandial not a 2 hour postprandial assessment of blood glucose. Did you know V8 Splash is sweetened with high-fructose corn syrup and Sucralose?

Hello, I wake up, eat and then feel buzzed it comes and goes. I dont drink alcohol, my waking sugar level is 82, my blood sugar after food is 96 ish. I eat healthy and cut out sugar. Sugar leads to feeling hypoglycemic after an hour. My BP is 123/78?
My blood sugar test results was169 after food (2hrs) & i pee when ever i drink too much of water.. Is it bad?
Checked blood sugar 3 hours after eating two slices of pizza and drinking a 12 oz. soda. result was 120 mg/dL. is this ok or should it be back under 100 within 3 hours?
So I have decided to cut out sugar. What I mean by that is I only eat my 3 meals a day and drink a lot of water. Is it normal to experience a breakout about two weeks after the start of it. I am still getting sugar in but only if it is part of a meal?
I eat next to no salt, no sugar, drink lots of water and walk briskly for around 2 hours a day. My BP stays at around 130/110 forever, no change, why?
