On the opposite end of the spectrum, foods and drinks high in sugar can increase blood glucose levels extremely quickly. In 2019, Journalist Stephanie Nuzzo followed Berry’s keto diet for a week and revealed that she felt nauseated for the first two days while also experiencing headaches and fatigue. In reference to keto, Berry encouraged her seven million followers to not think of it as a diet, but more of a lifestyle change. Berry went on to claim that the diet offers benefits such as weight loss but also gives her more energy and better mental performance. Type 1 diabetes is a long-term condition where blood sugar levels (glucose) rise too high as the body cannot produce enough insulin - a hormone that is essential in breaking down sugar and fuelling our bodies. Although individuals with diabetes still produce glucose from food, there is no insulin to allow it into the body’s cells, causing dangerously high sugar levels which can put individuals into diabetic comas.
