Been using a German Sinocare Safe Accu off amazon.co.uk 100 test strips costs £20 150 lancets cost £8 Are there better deals out there or is this a good buy for a pre diabetic?

Know what's causing this?

Over the last two months I've been on and off a ketogenic diet to try and reverse my pre diabetic diagnostic. Lost well over 21 lbs but there has been terrible complications. I am finding that if I don't have some porridge late day I start too get heart paputations, worry like mad and get...

Technology will be a real liberator for the lives of many disabled, ill and of people of impaired health in the future. I just wish I could see the day when a disabled child can wear an exoskeleton that is affordable for the poorest family. I hope one day the human race will reach a point of...

Not bad. Similar to US Brand Teeccinno but much cheaper. https://teeccino.com/product/dandelion-dark-roast-herbal-coffee-tea-bags-2/

caffeine just makes me ill. Tea has caffeine in it. for that reason i dont touch it.

wish i knew fat isn't such a bad thing and carbs are the real culprit.

Your right about that. With the introduction of NFC chip (flash) devices the next step will be more integration of machine & humankind. The Internet of Things will enable constant monitoring of users BG, heart rate, blood pressure etc. As a programmer this is something I'd really like to get...

Get a Salad, a little olive oil and apple cider vinegar, salt, pepper, throw in some Mackerel and have it with a Kale shake

Thanks. I was on this forum 2 years ago and my Dr didn't see any signs of Pre Diabetes but I had my doubts. My problem is I've always been a carb muncher eating the hidden sugars in every form of convenience food. Couple that with soft drinks with sweeteners that increase insulin. It wasnt until...

Does such a thing exist? Zero Carb Cream Cheese. Got some cream cheese from Asda the other day and was shocked it was 5g carb per 100g. On the Insulin Index cream cheese is ranked very low but It would be equally as good if there was cream cheese out there with a significantly reduced carb rate...

I use butter, oil and cheese in moderation. The fat that I seek out is high quality animal fat such as bacon, ribeye steak and mackerel. Lean protein just makes my insulin jump and the outcome is excessive tiredness. Butter is best used to soften vegetables in my opinion. A small amount say...

Its restrictive but actually loosing weight feels so empowering. The only exercise I have done is house work. Soon as I lose the Keto Flu and can get back on the treadmill I feel my weight is going to fall off. When I tried on a pair of old jeans I went down 4 inches and was like hell yea! My...

Could be. I think there are some tests which could be ran. Depends where your located. NHS where I live is totally bankrupt.

The best thing to get yourself out of the energy loss that keto flu causes is to consume fatty protein such as mackerel, streaky bacon, ribeye steak, pork shoulder steak, salmon. It can help to consume a can of tinned mackerel after you wake up than fast all the way to lunch. Did this a couple...

I would avoid caffeine and swap for a caffeine free alternative. it causes insulin to go up just like sweeteners do. at least that is what dr berg says on youtube. check out insulin index.

usually after 2 hours but I have done a few checks to check if any foods cause me to have big spikes. 2 hours after eating I have gone to 5.2 mmol /L Todays food was breakfast/brunch 11am 3 streaky bacon 2 eggs + 10g butter + 50g chedder cheese scrambled 1 avocado 100g Kale + 5g butter. 1...

Hi Diana, If your doing low carb you will run into Keto Flu and it can last any where between a 1 week to 2 months. You will go to toilet more than usual during the 1st few days. Your know when your half way though because your breath will smell funny and your urine will smell like nail...

Hi there, am 35, male and not enjoying Pre-Diabetes :D Since March 2018 I had been suffering from a lot of anxiety that manifested its self in a hot stomach, throat and head. I ignored it but around mid July 2018 I began to get very dizzy and had a couple episodes of panic attacks. Later my...

I might be put on a slimming world subscription with help of the medical team there which includes all the people trying to slim down in my local area. Doctor knows I've been Pre-Diabetes for almost 2 years so she and her surgery team are taking it seriously it seems. I might get help with...
