Is sugar free candy still bad for a diabetic?

Sugar-free candy may still affect blood sugar levels in diabetics because they can contain sugar alcohols or other carbohydrates that can raise blood sugar levels. It's important for diabetics to check the nutrition label for total carbohydrate content and monitor their blood sugar levels after consuming sugar-free candy.


If the human body makes good sugar which is glucose why don't people just put that in foods instead of bad sugar?

Glucose is the fuel for our cells, but it is not really good for eating straight. Our bodies are designed to get glucose from from natural foods such as fruits vegetables, grains and even fat. Our metabolism creates glucose from these raw materials gradually when we need it. If you eat glucose, you are dumping it straight into your blood at once which can cause massive swings in your blood sugar levels. This may bring about emotional disturbances, hyperactivity, obesity and eventually type 2 diabetes. Eating natural whole foods gives you a stable blood sugar level which is ideal for good health. The only time it is good to eat/drink glucose is if you are in urgent need of sugar, eg after prolonged exercise, if weak from diarhoea and vomiting, or a diabetic going into insulin shock.If you want to use labels like "good sugar" then I'd say glucose is a "bad sugar" because it is not being measured out by our metabolism. Sucrose (table sugar) is half bad because in the mouth it splits quickly into glucose and fructose. The fructose might be called the "good sugar" because it has to be coverted into glycogen and stored thereby avoiding the dumping effect. However fructose in large quantities is not good for you because it causes some damage to your body before being converted to glycogen.What is good for you is to eat whole natural foods and avoid dumping lots of sugar into your body at once.
