I have a friend who has a blood sugar tester and we decided to do a test. Im not sure if this will even tell me anything....but I hadnt eaten and we took my blood sugar and it was 117. I then had a Pure de-lite candy bar with 18 carbs and 15 sugar alcohols. 20mins later tested my blood sugar and it was 137. Im trying to figure out, since it did raise my blood sugar, if raising it 20 is good or not. Anyone know?
I am afraid to eat the sugar alcohols, but wanted to know if they effect me or not.
I am not a diabetic and this test may not tell me anything, but does anyone have any idea?
