A member asked:
Had a 32 ounce slurpee. checked blood sugar (finger) 2 hours later. was 70. does this mean the slurpee's glycemic load wasn't all that bad?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: The glycemic load of a slurpee is bad no matter how you look at it. Your body was just able to handle that glycemic load in an efficient manner this time. If you are diabetic or pre-diabetic then you should avoid slurpees.
