    What do you mean by "fading"? Is that a typo or a slang term?

    Candy may not help you manage your blood glucose long term, but I understand that diabetics sometimes need to eat sugars as an emergency adjustment.

    What does your doctor say? Should you be taking some medication for your diabetes?

    Eating a small amount of candy won't limit weight loss, as long as it's within your calorie goal. Whether it's your best strategy for managing blood glucose in your personal situation is a question for your doctor.

    Talk to a diabetic educator or a registered dietician or equivalent and manage your diabetes first before worrying about other health improvement hacks.

    When you're bleeding profusely worry about stopping the bleeding first before worrying about washing your shirt
