Sorry if this has been covered already, but this site is huge and hard to navigate through Tapatalk. Anyway, I have diabetes and I'm wondering if there is any experience with other members with sweet juices and high blood sugar levels. Thanks in advance

None... Actually, my quarterly lab tests are better. BP is better. Life is much better since quitting smoking. All positive changes

Exactly....
.....what FF said....much better, A1C dropped two points in eight months.vape something which tastes really delicious, rather than eating it.
Then eat just nutritiousness food.
Same here, my labs have actually improved since I quit smoking. All my juices/flavors have been sweet, no increase in sugar levels. Believe alot of juice/flavors use artificial sweetners.

Yup, all good, everything is better with me but i have to say i still would MUCH PREFER to eat the stuff than vape if i had a choice , God i miss chowing down on my favorite sweets lol.
I did not think any ejuices used real sugars.
I just finished some apple pie...ejuice.

I think what may become an issue is vapers who get dry mouth, who end up drinking a lot of cola or other sugary drinks...
Why? There are plenty of alternatives, especially since there are drink concentrates. I used to like Arizona Ice Tea, well, I just use the concentrate. Liquid refreshment, as a whole, has got much less sugary. Really where I have trouble is needing to eat on the run and thinking that bag of peanut M&Ms is okay.
Just how I see it it from my lonely mountainside in Arizona...

Probably more like extra energy drinks with the new vapers...
Most Americans just don't know how bad drinking soda can be...
Dr was very happy with my last set of results. I do get dry mouth and constantly have a glass of ice water near me.
There is education coming out the wah-zoo. My doctor gave me pamphlets and websites galore. I am still below the insulin thresh-hold, but it is in the family. Maybe someone that is hard-headed...
I fill Gatorade bottles with water and concentrate. Drink about three a day.

I did forget to say that very early on, I worked through lunch and went to eat at about 2:30 and passed out at the wheel from low blood sugar. I am watchful now.
Dick Van Patten just died today. Leonard Nimoy died just a couple of months ago, both diabetics, both in their 80s. Good to be watchful though. My car was a total loss, but I was going less than 20mph.
Just have to be watchful. And eat ma' spinach and pass on the carbs.

My wife is a diabetic and after a year and a half of vaping and no tobacco the doctor took her off her metformin and lisinopril because her health has improved enough that she no longer needs them.
I would still keep an eye on it...whatever that means in practice. I am grateful I didn't drive over someone, especially if I were exerting...I run out of my minimal sugar when working physically.
I pretty much vape only sweet stuff. Now if I could just stop eating them my A1c might get to where my doctor wouldn't give me the stink eye every time we meet. 
In some people, something happens with your insulin when you quit smoking. Because the cigarettes kept your metabolism artificially high, your body stopped producing as much insulin. So when you quit, your insulin production can be lower. It doesn't happen to everyone but they attribute that to one of the favored in post quitting weight gain.
Yeah, i find that you really need to plan when your out and about , you could start feeling ill really quick and you need to have the right food and drinks .
I bought a Nutribullet thingamajig , life saver for me .
Thats exactly right, Soda , whether diet or regular will destroy your health . My Aunt can't stop drinking diet soda and her health went downhill , she can't even walk anymore , her kidneys give her major problems , major intestinal issues and excessive weight gain , she's bed ridden .
She was perfectly fine before she started drinking soda every day , she has to have a few big glasses , everyone has told her to stop including physicians .
