What I do, I definitely wouldn't recommend. It's definitely unhealthy.
If I feel weak and shaky, I'll dissolve like 15 teaspoons of sugar in a cup of water and drink that. Then flush that down with extra water. Obviously only if I don't need to go anywhere, otherwise I wouldn't drink a lot of water.
But maybe it's not that bad. To be honest, I have no idea how much sugar is in regular soda.
I don’t think that’s worse than soda at all, probably healthier because there’s no additives
That does sound pretty terrible. While sugar can quicken you up in the very specific case that you're literally acutely hypoglycemic, that's also about the only reason to do this.
