[QUOTE="catinahat, post: 2662202, member: 155453"] It's how we work , the food we eat gets digested and it's glucose hits our blood, our pancreas reacts to the higher blood sugar levels by releasing insulin, the insulin allows our cells to use the glucose, blood sugar levels drop , pancreas reduces the amount of insulin. So the levels have to rise to prompt the pancreas to up production, my beautiful streak and salad on the other hand, no carbs, no noticeable rise in blood sugar, pancreas can take a break. So yes everyone's blood sugar will rise after a meal depending of course on what they ate. The only difference for people with diabetes is that our blood sugar levels remain high because we either don't produce enough insulin, or our insulin is not as effective as it should be. [/QUOTE]
