I always believed that exercise reduces your blood sugars but since I have started to use Freestyle Libre I have discovered
quite a lot about my sugars and how they react to foods and exercise.
I found that after no breakfast if my sugars were around 6 or 7 they would go up to 9 or 10 after 30 to 40 mins aerobic exercise.
I used to check my sugars about 3 times a day with the finger pricking kit. Now i can constantly monitor my sugars and guess I check about 40 times a day, The only problem is the new sensor from Freestyle is very expensive .
They are still trialing it so it's worth getting to use it for a couple of weeks just to learn more about your body and sugars.
Any feedback would be good
