    I don't know about the sauce, but I'm pretty sure that 230 grams of simple carbs will affect blood sugar ever so slightly.

    AAS effect both BG and t3...most bodybuilders experience hypo at some point if your not consuming meals fairly frequently. Try switching to lower GI carbs to give you a more steady flow of blood sugar. post workout is the only time i can see using high GI carbs like dextrose, or maltodextrin found in protein shakes and carb drinks etc...

    Your blood sugar was 78? Well that is a good normal number! Not sure about the other issue.

    Peace,

    it wasnt 230 grams of simple sugar it is 53 simple and 178 complex carbs . i agree the only time i take simple sugars in is post workout to help replenish muscle glycogen storages. and i do eat very frequent meals, roughly every 2 hrs. the doc told me 78 was very low considering what i had eating and knowing me and my family, that is why it worried me and him...
