What do you mean by "vast swathes of the general population"?
An estimated ~80% of Americans.

Thank you Jim,
I would be interested in reading more about this, do you have a reference?
And perhaps some papers which are not US-focused?
Would be wise to get a bit lower but as you are on insulin you can't go off the deep end with low carbing without reducing your doses of insulin. It is your choice but running high is going to lead to needing more insulin and a greater risk of heart disease and other nasties.Afraid I've not really taken it as seriously as I should, more a "limit it to 2 biscuits with my cuppa" person.
Well I was told I didn’t have diabetes so I’m quite happily downing my mango juice, what happens! I was sick as early and it turns out it was HyperglycemiaHello
Randomly checked my hubby's blood sugar and its 8.8 , he had eaten so it's a random one. I told him it's too high. Am I right? He ate a carb heavy lunch.
"Not true.
They usually are below that, but can go above 10 under the right circumstances without ever developing diabetes"
How about 29.8 as my daughter managed to get to the other day. Her doctor repeatedly has told her she is not diabetic.

She has asked her doctor for an A1c but they but the soonest they can do it isn't till November. Her levels have come down now but non the less are still higher than I like.How is your daughter doing now, John? This is high.

I am pretty sure she is T2 but as she also has iron deficiency anemia I am not sure how accurate an A1c will be.
