Giving someone a drink high in sugar will spike blood glucose levels. The objective is to take a baseline fasted blood test to see what levels are like before the drink is given. Then you provide this sugar drink. Periodically blood glucose can be monitored using a blood glucose metre. With this you can measure and see how long it takes for blood glucose levels to go back to baseline.
