I’ve just scheduled my annual glucose tolerance test – the one where you drink nasty glucose liquid then they see if you go into a diabetic coma (or at least if your blood sugar spikes). The results of my last one were very close to a diagnosis of diabetes so I’m hoping my efforts this year have improved my glucose tolerance.
I was used to eating lots of carbs for three days before the test, but at the last one they told me they don’t get people to do that any more (yay!). But since then I have moved into a different state (NSW Australia) and I’ve been told I need to carb-load again! I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with carbs!
Do other people still have to carb load where they live?
