“I followed every viral blood sugar hack for 30 days. Here's the truth.” said this TikTok user.
You've probably seen them...
Viral TikTok and Instagram posts promising to "hack" your blood sugar with weird tricks.
As a doctor, Dr. Rick Cohen was skeptical. But with over 50 million views on #diabetictok, he had to investigate.
So he spent 30 days testing every viral diabetes hack he could find:
✗ The "cinnamon shot" method (2.3M views)
✗ Eating ice cubes before meals (890K views)
✗ The "backwards dinner" trend (1.7M views)
✗ Taking cold showers after eating (560K views)
✗ The "vinegar water" hack (4.2M views)
Some worked. Others were complete nonsense.
But one absolutely shocked Dr. Cohen.
It's called the "Sugar Shield" drink.
Unlike the other "hacks," this one is backed by real science. A study in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition found it can flatten your blood sugar spikes by up to 30%.
It takes literally 10 seconds to make, and you drink one glass before eating carbs..
We tested this with a continuous glucose monitor. Here are the actual results:
-
Before: Eating a cookie spiked me from 101 to 143 mg/dL
-
After: Same cookie with Sugar Shield drink: only went from 93 to 112 mg/dL
The spike was 31 points lower. Almost exactly what the research predicted.
