[QUOTE="hanadr, post: 114853, member: 8110"] Mark Normal ie non-diabetic blood sugars are much lower than most people think. In Dr. Bernstein's diabetes solution, He states that he tests non-diabetic visitors to his office and almost always finds the reading 85( translates to 4.7). He also now says that an ideal Hb A1c is probably aound 4.2%. The numbers quoted for diabetics come from many sources, some are nothing whatever to do with health. One set of numbers( i think Bg 7 among them) was instigated in the USA to protect people from a formal diagnosis of diabetes, which might cancel their medical insurance. Some of the others are based on what is thought "achievable". Very few studies have ever been done on non-diabetic people. I believe that there's one somewhere done by Abbott Diabetes Care in Germany. I encountered it and haven't been able to find it again. I personally don't go by the DUK guidelines and keep to a target of "under 6 at all times" .WELL Almost Hana [/QUOTE]
