[QUOTE="Dazza1984, post: 642347, member: 87437"] All foods are ultimately broken down into sugars; just at different rates. You might be missing a hypo during the night. If so then your liver will release sugars to compensate and hence your v.high readings. Plus certain foods will slow absorption of glucose; fat is a major player in that respect. Protein sort of. Experiment with things. One night have no protein but some carbs and maybe even a small biscuit. Test during night and then first thing. Then alter your intake a few days later etc. All down to trial and error. [/QUOTE]
