It takes the body a while to digest the carbohydrates, convert those into glucose and absorb. Visit this site for info: https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/carbohydrates/carbohydrates-and-blood-sugar/#:~:text=When%20people%20eat%20a%20food,sugar%20for%20energy%20or%20storage.

Sugar takes time to be absorbed so that shows up in your blood sugar later. Good Luck
