Message: <blockquote data-quote="Sid Bonkers" data-source="post: 1366828" data-attributes="member: 19121">Id go further and say that every food and drink effects individuals differently which is why it is so important to test and work out exactly what "you" can and cant eat and drink, what one person can happily eat or drink spikes another person.As for me I used to drink a lot of strong black espresso maybe 5 or 6 cups/mugs a day and now I only drink it occasionally and have noticed no difference in my bg levels what so ever. I stopped not because of diabetes but due to  high blood pressure which I keep down with meds and was attempting to lower it naturally and reduce my meds, it didnt work... ...Interestingly what I think I have discovered is that my body seems to have adjusted itself automatically to allow for the lack of caffeine in my diet and my bp is the same even though I rarely now drink coffee or tea, its as though my body likes to run a bit high for some reason, I have no idea why, even my GP said that it may just be the way my metabolism works.</blockquote>
