Скачать или смотреть EP84: Whiskey Soda & My Blood Sugar! | Alcoholic Drinks Series - The Sugar Spike Show

In this ‘Alcoholic Drinks’ Series, I want to see how popular spirits & cocktails such as whiskey, vodka, beer, wine, gin & tonic etc. impact my blood sugar, so that I can make more informed decisions. This series has no intention of promoting alcohol consumption. My personal opinion is that alcohol should be avoided by everyone.
.
This series is a part of The Sugar Spike Show, a 1 minute episode show on reels & shorts, where I show the impact of popular foods & drinks on my blood sugar and find ways to reduce the spike. My aim is to develop habits to stay within a normal sugar range as much as possible and share my experiences along the way.
.
Why I’m doing this: Research today shows that high blood sugar variability in the long term can lead a vast variety of health issues including weight gain (See the work of Dr. Rob Lustig, Dr. Casey Means, Dr. Michael Snyder & Jessie Inchauspé etc).
.
My personal aim:
1. Blood sugar increase after eating = 30mg/dl or lower
2. Maximum blood sugar level after eating = 140mg/dl
3. Range = Be within 70-120mg/dl for 90% of the day

Please also note:
I am not a doctor & this is not medical advice
I’m not a diabetic, or even a pre-diabetic
These are my continuous glucose monitor readings (CGM), and everyone's readings can be different. In my experience, the readings can change by 10-20% even if I try the same food item on another day
Ideally each person should test foods on themselves to see how their body reacts
In addition to glucose spikes, calories & quality of ingredients also matter
Sensor I use: Abbott Freestyle Libre

The Sugar Spike Show - Enjoy!
