As wine lovers, we often rave about the health benefits of a good red. But today, I want to talk about oranges—not wine.
For years, I believed that starting my day with a fresh glass of orange juice, packed with Vitamin C, was great for my health. However, after wearing a blood sugar monitor for a day, I discovered something surprising—downing a sugary drink on an empty stomach (even if it’s “natural sugar”) causes a sharp spike in blood sugar, followed by a crash.
This rollercoaster effect has serious implications, affecting energy levels and potentially leading to insulin resistance over time.
