[Diabetes-Talk] Blood sugar question

[Bridgit Kuenning-Pollpeter]

Yep, any carb will impact BGs a couple of hours after eating. Despite Medicare's stupid rules and the lack of info among doctors, that's why it's recommend to test BGs a couple of hours after eating.

And the M&M’s have that sugar coating over the chocolate so that could raise your BG if you indulge in enough of them. Moderation is always a good thing to keep in mind so enjoy your treat, but be careful with how many you have and how often.
