There is truth to this. I ate a half a package of Lightlife chili (22 carbs). Within 20 minutes, I started shaking and did not feel right. My blood sugar was 170
(my reading was 105 20 minutes earlier). I ate a handful of non-salted peanuts and the symptoms subsided. With one round trip on 3 flights of stairs and the peanuts, my reading was 100 at the 2 hr.
