They delay the absorption of the sugars. Unfortunately I have Type 1 diabetes - 
the insulin producing cells in the pancreas have died. So I have to have 
insulin shots or be on an insulin pump. People with Type 2 diabetes still 
produce insulin, their bodies have trouble absorbing or processing it.

So yes I can eat the sugars etc, but I have to take a larger amount of insulin 
to compensate for the increased carbohydrates. The problem is that I do eat 
something sweet and my blood glucose levels skyrocket. That has is own set of 
problems.
