Hehe ... I can hear the lawyers salviating over this one already

There is no chance in **** that your employer can get away with this.

Diabetes is a registered disability, and all employers must make "all reasonable accommodation" to help their disabled customers and employees. Allowing you to have glucose tabs or drinks in case you swing low is an absolute necessity, much like wheelchair-accessible toilets.

get your union rep or lawyer on this one ...
