NOTE

Do Not Fear Glucose Spikes

Insulin and blood glucose spikes are normal human physiology. It is not necessary to fear glucose spikes from consuming natural sources like oranges, honey, or milk. The fear around glucose spikes is considered unnecessary for most individuals, as spikes up to 130-150 mg/dL while consuming carbohydrates are harmless. The idea that any rise in blood glucose will cause harm is unsubstantiated, unless it reaches very high levels, which indicates the consumption of inappropriate foods. Engaging in respectful discussions about this topic is encouraged, as there is a lack of solid evidence supporting the notion that moderate blood glucose spikes are harmful to humans.
