What are you eating at dinner time or for bedtime snack?

[kapil1136 in reply to Activity2004]

I eat 1 bowl of dal, 1 bowl cottage cheese veg, that's it

Pulses, lentils

When you say fasting levels, do you mean when you test first thing in the morning after fasting overnight?

It could be the dawn effect pushing some stored glucose out of your liver to prepare you for the day ahead.

It could be the effect of slow release carbs taking effect overnight from your dinner. Some carbs can effect you blood-glucose levels for many hours.

Are you on medication?

Are you Type 1 or Type 2?

Perhaps you should make an appointment with your doctor for a fasting test or HbA1c to see what's happening.

I am not on any medications. I don't know if I am a diabetic or a pre-diabetic

My hba1c test shows 6.37

A great idea!

6.37 is a good reading.

Have you spoken to your doctor about this?

They have obviously done a HbA1c to check? Is that because they had a concern or you asked them to do it?

The dietician told me to get it checked. Now she has put me on a new nutrition plan for 30 days and will do a glycoslated test after that to understand better why the fasting levels are high.

OK, keep us posted on how you get on.

Good luck
