What Effect Does Caffein/ Energy Drinks Play On Someone With Diabetes?
Posted by: Alan in Diabetes, tags: Caffein/, Diabetes, Does, Drinks, Effect, Energy, Play, Someone, What, WithI am writing a research paper and I am having a hard time with some of my searches ( I think my wording is wrong) I am actually writing about 5 hour energy but just general info will work. Can anyone maybe tell me how to find info on the effects that energy drinks and caffeine have on someone with diabetes? Even your personal testimonies will work. Thank you

consider what the “energy” in those drinks is! Most of the time it is sugar and that is the problem with those drinks for diabetics. Those of us injecting insulin must plan each and every gram of carbohydrate (sugar) we take in and cover it with insulin.
Insulin makes the excess carbs into fats which float freely in the blood stream for a while then pack up in the veins and arteries and on the bottom side of our bodies making us fat.
Caffeine has not much effect other than making some people very hyperactive.http://www.phlaunt.com/diabetes/
