Hi I am new on here but I just wanted to check if any one knew what the safe levels are for type 2 diabetes
 
Hi and welcome. The general advice from NICE and others is to stay below 8.5mmol 2 hours after a meal on the meter or keep the HBa1C below around 6.5%
 
What did he eat? does he have any other health problems? is he on medication what and how often

if you post the info loads of folks will be able to help you, start to keep a food diary so you can track his food intake and as you have a meter add in those readings to help you see what bounces him :)
 
He has heart problems so he is on heart tablets Glizaride, Metformin and Insulin
