no I am not saying that,

I am saying generally, it causes too much of an insulin dump and recovery process
which is fine and dandy, but it is better to drink water and eat food instead of sugary
beverages if you ain't working out hard.

when working out hard, muscles take glucose out of blood without need for
insulin to trigger it. the pancreas and endocrine system runs better when
less pure glucose is ingested during rest
