    You are following a good strategy with having your sugary treats at night.

    When you eat sugary foods, your blood glucose spikes upwards then downwards (your body over reacts because it is designed to deal with fruit, not Mars Bars). A few hours after a sugary snack, your blood glucose will be too low, which causes renewed sugar cravings. In order not to have your blood glucose roller coaster the whole day, try to hold off sugary treats until evening.

    so your body distinguishes between fruit sugar and mars bar sugar….Please explain this magical process…as sugar, is well sugar when you break it all down..it does not matter if it comes from candy bars or leprechauns at the end of a rainbow...
