[QUOTE="GraceK, post: 326228, member: 47233"] Oh wow! That's interesting - I've only just taken up drinking coffee again after years of not drinking it. It's how I get my single cream down me every day and I didn't connect it with increased BS levels. So what you've discovered is that even if coffee has no sugar in it, no milk, no cream, just taken neat - it causes sugar levels to rise not because of sugar or carb content but because the caffeine blocks insulin. I wonder how many other foods there are that are not carb or sugar laden but nevertheless affect how our insulin works? :think: [/QUOTE]
