[QUOTE="craig81, post: 532430, member: 58327"] It's hard to say. And your body can change how it responds to food and drink so what applied during one period of your life may not hold true during other periods. I was never much of a coffee or tea drinker until relatively recently. I did notice, however, that when I used to drink diet coke (no longer touch the stuff) that I would frequently get blood sugar readings that wouldn't match up with my insulin ratios. Looking back I suspect it was the caffeine in the cola that was having an impact. Not everybody responds to caffeine but some of us do. It's worth a shot. Fast for a period. Take your blood sugar. Have a coffee. Wait an hour to 90 minutes. And then test. Then you'll know. Hope you figure it out. [/QUOTE]
