Hi Lopper,

Spices have very little carbohydrate in the quantities you would use to add flavour, so wouldn't raise your sugar levels. The only thing to watch out for is spicy food is often accompanied by a high carbohydrate food, like rice, and the temptation is to have a bigger helping of rice to counteract the extra spiciness.
