People giving stupid responses. Eat a full carb meal with zero protein or vegetables. Have a giant bowl of pasta with toast, use Alfredo sauce, and then have cake or something as dessert. You will crash from the carbs. This is one way diabetes is self discovered. This is not normal to happen after every meal, it can be normal after a carb heavy meal (as described, and like Thanksgiving), but still should watch it.

Edit: carbs do almost directly break down the exact same as sugar too. Ingredients will read 2g sugar, 85g carbs, 0 calories and people act like it is healthy. Meanwhile it is pretty much 87g of sugar.

Yes carbs break down the same as sugar since carbs are just long chains of sugar. However simple sugars spike your blood glucose faster and higher and cause maximal insulin to be released to antagonise it whereas carbs have more of a slow release of energy that doesn’t peak your insulin as much.

Its not just carbs. It happens when you mix a lot of carbs with a lot of fats.
