Recently, as the number of drinking parties has increased due to the corona endemic, various companies are introducing hangover cures or strengthening their lineups.
However, it is said that some hangover cures may have adverse effects on diabetics.
In today’s ‘Health Tipster’ class, we will learn about how to take hangover cures for diabetic patients.

A hangover cure to be taken before or after drinking. As alcohol consumption increases after Corona, various products are being released centered on pharmaceutical companies.
Last year, domestic hangover cure products sold more than 310 billion won. recorded the largest ever.
Compared to the past, as the number of women and consumers in their 20s and 30s has expanded, the number of products that pay attention to taste has also increased.
Fruit flavors and juices are added, or sweetness is emphasized.
However, these sweet hangover cures should be used with caution if you have diabetes.
Alcohol itself raises blood sugar, and even sugars in hangover cures can have a negative effect.
We looked at the nutritional contents of four types of drinking hangover cures that are easily available on the market and are highly recognized.
Sugars in one bottle are 15-17g. All had more sugar than the same amount of cola. The content of simple sugars such as crystal fructose and other fructose was also noticeable.
The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends sugar intake of less than 5% of daily calorie intake.
If you consume 2000kcal a day, it is 25g, but drinking just one cup of hangover cure will satisfy more than half.
If you are a healthy person, there is no big problem if you consume a bottle of sugar at the same time as a hangover cure after drinking, but diabetics who cannot control their blood sugar are different.

Liquids are absorbed quickly and raise blood sugar quickly, so drinking on an empty stomach as a so-called ‘one shot’ is also a problem.
In particular, if you drink it on an empty stomach the morning after drinking, a ‘blood sugar spike’ phenomenon in which blood sugar rises rapidly may occur.

Some liquid hangover cures contain less than 10g of sugar, but it is not easy for consumers to check them individually.
Experts warned that if you have diabetes, be careful not to drink too much alcohol and consume unnecessary sugar.
