Answer 1

Ironically enough, I also took a 3-hr gllucose tolerance test yesterday. The liquid I drank was called Glucola. It was served very cold in a large (16 oz.)  hospital cafeteria cup and had a  taste and color very similar to that of Sprite, though the consistency was a bit thicker than Sprite or any other soft drink. I asked what was in it and was told that it was 100 grams of sugar, which represents approximately three candy bars eaten at one time. I felt a little nauseated and very sleepy for a few minutes after consuming this.   If this doesn't help, call the place that administered the test. to find out what it was. I hope you're feeling fine by the time you see this.
