Some reasons:
1.)
The body releases extra glucose in circulation, during illness or infection. This can lead to rise in blood sugar.
2.)
The hormones

Foods that are good/bad
Hiya, I've been reading a few articles about PCOS and the diets associated with them I wondered if anybody knows what sort of foods you should try and avoid if you have PCOS. Does it really make a difference if you miss out the starchy foods etc? I don't understand completely the whole insulin part

Berberine
I am not diabetic but was diagnosed with
insulin

a few years ago. I was prescribed Metformin (500 mg x 3) but, before I had a chance to start it, I stumbled upon an article about Berberine and have been taking it since (500 mg x 3).

Is it advisable to use VICTOZA even when blood sugar is fully under control with insulin ?
The victoza, a GLP 1 analogue, liraglutide, is available in injection form. Is it better than insulin if you have associated cardiac problems ? Is it safe drug with minimum side effects ? Any experience or suggestion.
