Drinking herbs in the evening is generally not likely to affect blood glucose, but there are some herbs that can affect the next day’s blood glucose measurement if they are honeyed or honey pills.
Generally speaking, Chinese herbal medicines do not contain ingredients with high sugar content, therefore, they will not affect blood glucose monitoring on the next day. However, there are some herbs that contain honeyed ingredients, such as honey licorice. This honey-processed herbal ingredient will have an effect on blood glucose. Therefore, it may also affect the next day’s blood glucose measurement.
There are also some medicines that contain large honey pills, which are also sweet, so try to avoid taking such medicines if you want to measure your blood sugar the next day.
The medication should be used under the supervision of a doctor.
