I've been through this. 2017, I went to the general hospital to get my blood tested for glucose and saw my blood glucose spiked at 6.5 after a night of fasting where on a normal situation it should be around 4.5 to 5 . The doc told me that I was almost reaching diabetic. I was pretty scared for a long long time. Then I decided that I needed to get some thing done and changed. <\/p>\n<p>The first thing that I reduced was the craving for sugary drinks. This does the most damage from my view to the body. Sugar if unused converts to fats and it lead the body to have this insulin sensitivity reduced for the body. The body won't be sensitive towards the glucose. Then there is the problem of too much glucose in the body, it can cause the bodies kidney to fail.<\/p>\n<p>The first big step is to reduce any sugars in the blood. All food which is processed and are full of starch definitely have high amounts of glucose which can cause the body to have high glucose in the blood. Bread is also something to really avoid if you want to reduce any glucose spikes in the blood. I was trying to cut down the amount of weight for my body and was not successful so one book that I stumbled across was written by a Doctor known as the wheat belly. It states that two pieces of bread is if I am not mistaken is around 2 tablespoon of sugar. All processed sugars need to be reduced too. These are found in packaged foods. <\/p>","appTitle":"What habits should we avoid if we want to avoid high blood sugar?","appTags":["health"],"musingPostType":"answer","appParentPermlink":"f3evd7ssw","app":"musing\/1.1","appParentAuthor":"priya1","appCategory":"health"}" |
