Saturday DOC Poll

Because I’m insanely curious…

I posted this question on Twitter and didn’t get much response. Probably because Twitter can be a huge black hole sometimes.

But really, what do you do? I’m all about keeping good hygiene, even at 3 am. Plus, waking up with a sour taste in your mouth just sucks.

However, as a young child and was a pro at drinking juice in my sleep via straw, my parents used to just give me water to wash down. Later in life, I’ve had a number of issues with the enamel in my teeth thinning, but I’m not sure if that’s an exposure to OJ acids problem, or a diabetes problem. (Because if I have diabetes, clearly that’s the root cause of EVERYTHING wrong with me, right?)

    I said no, but I never treat an overnight low with juice. The glucose tabs on my nightstand are the go-to choice for me. In general, I’ll put the tabs toward the back of my mouth and let them dissolve, rather than let them come in contact with my teeth.

    All I want to do after a late night / middle of the night low is sleep, so I generally don’t get up (as I have my hypo treatments next to / under my bed).

        LOL – girl, I can’t even remember the last time I drank OJ. Way too acidic for my stomach. I love orange-flavored things (like Brisk Sugarfree Orangeade, which I can’t find anywhere anymore 😦 ) but it has to be super watered down. And for me, it went both ways – yucky taste of toothpaste after OJ or yucky OJ after toothpaste.
