RE: [IPk] Caffeine
Hi does any one have any experience of caffeine and heightened sugars. I
know its been in the news again about type 2, caffeine and insulin
resistance.
I'd heard it before, but forgotten. I've been having bad post meal peaks and
really bad dawn phenomena - and been meaning to cut down on my caffeine
anyway (about six/seven cups a day(I know) including one at about nine o
clock at night (it doesn't stop me sleeping and it just crept in to my
ritual!), so for the last few days I have cut it out completely - and I
haven't had the same high sugars at night or on getting up in the morning. A
coincidence? Does it work like this in type 1's?
