FBS higher after morning walk !!
As a new experiment I checked FBS before and after a 5 KM morning walk. Surprisingly, before walk it was 125 and after it was 145. Googling says it happens as liver produces more glucose on exercising but enough insulin is not produced by my body. Thus the enhanced reading. What to do ??

Dinner time and its impact on Fasting Blood Sugar
My dinner got delayed by an hour for the last two days. Surprisingly, my FBS has come down by at least 10 to 20 points. These are my readings. Last Friday Night Dinner(Emmer wheat chapati of 80-90g approx.) at 9.30 PM. Spike at 10.50 PM was at 166 mg/dL. The next day FBS at 8 AM was 89 mg/dL. Yesterday

So, I last ate at 6:30pm last night, finished by 7pm, so I won't eat again until after 11am today. I will do my best to try to extend the time of my fast to more

What a difference a year makes !
I posted the following in the 'Bridge to 10k' forum a few days ago and it has been suggested that Couch to 5k members might also find it interesting and hopefully supportive to your running journeys: I recently passed the anniversary of my starting c25k. So what's happened during that year? Well Runkeeper

Sugar
Getting a bit lost with all the posts! Someone wrote in recently about flares after eating sugar so thought it worth adding that I had 2 very bad days twice recently after eating quite a lot of refined sugar (once at Easter!). I am not diabetic and still have a relaxed attitude e.g. to a smidgeon of

FDA is making it illegal for compounding pharmacies to compound 300 nutrients. This is an attack on all the Laura Mischleys.
Below is an email I got from the American Association of naturopathic doctors & McGuff Compounding Pharmacy Services, Inc. who makes injectable thiamine for some of us. Apparently the FDA is making it illegal for them to compound approximately 300 nutrients -- even if prescribed by your doctor. "Citizen's

I realise this is the weight-loss forum, but diabetes and obesity are inextricably linked, and we seem to have had quite a few posts on the subject lately. I was unable to respond to lucigret's tag on a closed thread, so herewith a few thoughts on the subject. 1) Back when my mum was a ward sister,

"Algae Cal and Strontiuml"
Algae Cal Plus and Strontium. Does anybody have any experience of these supplements? They claim to improve bone density. They are very expensive.....but their claims to improve bone density seem somewhat plausible. And they are heavily marketed once you show any interest on Facebbok ad......keeps repeating

How strict are you on low-carbs?
I’m trying to bring my A1c back to 5.6. My last test in April showed 5.7. It had always been 5.6 since diagnosed with PMR/GCA in January 2019. I Started on 40 mg of pred, now at 10. I had gotten somewhat off track after Christmas. I’ve read that 40- 50 grams of carbs a day is considered low

Intermittent Fasting and Keto: The Pros and Cons
Intermittent fasting (IF) and ketogenic diets are all the rage now. They both promote fat burning. But how well do these two approaches combine? Ketogenic diets promote fat burning by restricting carbs, which forces you to rely more on dietary fat. IF restricts all calories for a large part of the day

Health Paradox: US diabetes cases fall as obesity rises
Hi everyone, Here's a really interesting article about how obesity is rising in the US and yet diabetes is falling. I think that some of these aberrations are due to them making diagnosis more robust so people have been diagnosed who has slipped through the net. They use the haemoglobin A1C blood test

An Interesting Thought Has Crossed My Mind Re The Current Vitamin A/Alveoli Research.
There is at the present time encouraging research showing that retinoid acid, the active agent in vitamin A, can, AND HAS, in experimental lab animals, RESTORED ALVEOLI! Of course big med and big pharma will make sure "it requires 25 more years of research." But ignoring that, here is my thought: In

Blood sugar testing
Hi I'm type 2 diabetic and I currently manage this by taking metformin 3 times per day weight each meal. I am concerned that I never know what my blood sugar readings are and asked my gp if I could have a test kit however was told I didn't need one. Does anyone test theirs and if so what type of monitor
