This post is about the Sunny Delight drink that learnt me to literally started to make me watch what I drink.
I started three days before Farthers Day, my mum and dad decided to let me and my sisters try a new healthier drink to have with our snacks. My sisters did not like the new drink that was called Sunny D but I loved it I coulod drink it by the boat loads so every time I had a snack or a full meal I would have some.
Over the next two days my body started to shut down slowly and I ended up going into hospital and no one could figure out what it was that was happening to me it baffled every one and every one was very concered about my well being at first my mum and the experts thought it was the Skips that I was eating for a new snack as well but that is only because I jave never had any problems with drinks before well never with anything that had fruit in it, like fresh orange juice.
After having three days been in hospital, again hooked up to machines again they let me go home and whilst in the hospital I doid not have any skips or any off the Sunny D for a few days I did not have them at home either but that was mainly because I did not want any. On the 5th day I had some.... well I had a fair bit if I was honest with myself, and once again I was back in the hospital, the hospital was once again baffled and they told me and my mum to run through every thing that I had eaten in the past 24 hours so we did and the only two things that came up on both occations was the Sunny D and the Skips so they deviced a plan to see if that was it.
They decided to give me both of them on seperat occations and see if my blood sugars went up in the space of time of 20 mins, and low and behold it was the Sunny D. So after they figured out what it was they sat the family down and told us how to tell whether or not something is good for us, so I am going to tell you.
When you are looking at the back of some thing at the contens of the product if the carbohydrates and the of which sugars section are the same no matter how low you still must not have it but if the of which sugars part is half of or even more then it is safe. You see i had to learn the hard way but I hope that after reading my post you will know what to look for.
