Sugar or more appropriately glucose is the only energy currency of the body. Without glucose, the first cells that get effected in the body are brain cells which cannot withstand the deficiency of glucose for even 15 minutes. We believe that whatever sugar that rises or falls in our blood is related only to the food that we have eaten immediately. This is partially true because our body keeps on storing surplus glucose and also creates its own glucose in the liver, when such a need arises. When we fast, the gates of such glucose stores are opened by the body so that our cells don's die out of starvation. When you took a small meal- it was not just the contribution of that meal but also your glucose stores that made that 124 mg rise!
