I successfully completed my 3 hour glucose tolerance test today (no, I don’t know the results. My precious 4 vials of blood were sent to the lab.) I’m so relieved that it’s out of the way. Yay! Goodness, if I got this riled up over a test… imagine how I’ll be before my c-section.
The 100g sugar drink is awful. I thought the 50g one was ok… It just tasted like a sweeter minute maid. The 100g glucose tolerance drink was so sweet I think it burned off some of my taste buds. My tongue is still tingling. I was repulsed by all carbs and sugar until after dinner. I was craving meat! me.
I don’t know why they don’t market this stuff for those high energy obsessed people. You can try it out yourself… http://www.medicalmailorder.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWCATS&Category=707

Sunkist has like 52g of sugars, but that’s fructose which may or may not be as strong as glucose in terms of “sweetness”. I already think Sunkist is pretty sweet almost to the point of being too sweet to even drink, so I can’t imagine what doubling the sugar would be like.
