HEALTHY FOODS THAT CAN CAUSE BLOOD SUGAR SPIKES

What healthy foods can cause marked rises in blood sugar? How do they drive up blood sugar levels?

Fat free milk

Fat free milk or milk generally has carbohydrates and vitamin D, which are responsible for spiking sugar levels in blood when eaten.

Fruit juice

Most fruits including pineapple, orange, and cranberry contain sugars, such as fructose that will hike sugar levels after consumption. I recommend the juices to people trying to manage a drop in sugar levels.

Candy

Candy is loaded with carbohydrates that impact blood sugar when consumed. The carbs are rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream, giving a change in 15 minutes.
