Diabetics know better than anyone that dietary sugar is not the only food that can increase blood sugar. Rice cakes have no sugar in them at all, for instance, but have a higher glycemic index than chocolate cake.

Dietary sugar intact/dietary carb intake - at the end of the day, it turns into sugar
