A patient with T1DM using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) notices that fruit juice consistently causes glucose to spike to 250 mg/dL within 20 minutes. The best nutritional education point is:
-
A
Fruit juice is healthier than soda and does not require a bolus
-
B
Liquid carbohydrates are absorbed very rapidly and require a pre-meal or early bolus
-
C
The patient should switch to diet juice to avoid all carbohydrate impact
-
D
Fruit juice only raises glucose in patients who are insulin resistant
