Blood sugar levels increase after the consumption of food. Especially in sugary foods such as candy or chocolate, this increase in blood sugar will be more pronounced. In individuals with diabetes, who may require tracking of carbohydrates and food or injection of insulin following a meal, foods such as chocolate are suggested to be avoided. However, no-sugar dark chocolate from Ross Chocolates, which is sweetened with a mixture of inulin, erythritol, and stevia, may offer an alternative to conventional dark chocolate as the mixture of sweeteners is not expected to cause a significant increase in blood sugar. This project aims to compare the blood sugar levels following consumption of Ross dark chocolate bar with a conventional dark chocolate bar.
