If you tolerate it well and there is no adverse reaction to taking it on a empty stomach then you don't have a problem. If you don't eat any breakfast it's quite natural for your liver to help out by releasing some stored glucose. Personally I look on this as a positive, getting it out of my liver into my blood where it can be used.If you would rather not see your levels rise maybe try some cream in a coffee, the cream should fool your liver and prevent it from dumping glucose</blockquote>
