For a change I had a mug of horlicks light tonight but forgot to test. Has anyone else had this and do you think it is OK with BS readings?
 
Cant help with this im afraid , cant stand the stuff .Im off yhe opion you either Love it or hate like marmite yuk yuk on both accounts 🙂
 
I haven't had horlicks for a while now, but when I did it was the 'full fat' stuff.

I don't have any facts and figures (I never tested after having any because I was more interested in going to sleep!), but I always only made a small cup's worth and tended to skimp on the amount of powder used.

It always felt like a 'naughty' indulgence to me. 🙂
 
I would expect a high blood sugar reading from Horlicks light...I don't know why they don't call it Horlicks Hi
 
I used to have horlicks light before diagnosis and then for a while after until I wiggled it was not helping my bs. It is over 3 years now since last having it can't give you any info re readings.

Best thing to do is have again and then test. Then you can decide if to have x
