The Science
This beverage is high in sugar (+22% DV per 100g), which can cause rapid blood glucose spikes, a key concern for diabetes management. While it provides some beneficial micronutrients like vitamin C and B-vitamins, the high sugar content and low fiber (1.2g) outweigh these benefits, as fiber is insufficient to blunt sugar absorption. The carbohydrate content (+5% DV) also contributes to glycemic load.
Recommendation
Avoid this drink or consume only in very small portions, and prioritize unsweetened, low-sugar beverages with higher fiber for better blood sugar control.
