"Let’s say you had a Milky Way on an empty stomach. Your blood surge is then so dramatic that insulin overreacts and works twice as hard to clean the sugar out of the blood. This over efficient sugar removal doesn’t leave enough glucose circulating in your bloodstream, so your blood sugar concentration drops, you feel hungry again, and you crave (and probably eat) more carbs. That’s the postsugar “crash-and-binge” cycle, the root of sugar addiction."
