[QUOTE="mentat, post: 972911, member: 86670"] Hi Magsx1, Basically, in this situation a glucose tablet is [B]not [/B]bad for you. All carbohydrates (including sugar) quickly get turned into glucose by your digestive system, and pour into your bloodstream. This is why they "raise your blood sugar". However, what does you damage is [B]high[/B] blood sugar. So if you take one tablet and your low sugar rises to a normal (non-diabetic) level, there is no problem. However, your diet as a whole can influence your level of insulin resistance in the longer term, so if you are consuming lots of glucose tablets regularly, the picture is not so clear. [/QUOTE]
