Is this a common treatment method for type 2?

Those on low carb diet, does your heart rate become fast when your blood glucose is low?

I want to know.

After around two years of good glycemic control, today my father's insulin resistance seems to have improved to a new level. He is 82 this year. Today for the first time his two hours post meal reading (after eating 30g of carb) showed 5.8. I immediately took another reading and it showed 6.1...

When one watch the carb intake very carefully but ate lots of fats and protein, will he has higher risk of high blood triglyceride and protein byproducts in the blood?

A friend of mine told me her blood glucose was 4.something at times and that is why she felt dizzy. She said a doctor measure and told her to take more carb although she was T2. I am quite sceptical that she feel dizzy because of her bg since I know she still eat carb food and is probably...

I just found out that this raw material may be much better to make dimsum wrappings compare to other flour. It should have much lower glycemic index and significant resistant starch.

The lowest 3 in 1 coffee product I can find in my country still has 5.1g carb per packet serving. Is there any other product that can beat this or any way to make a lower carb one that taste good?

https://www.asiaone.com/lifestyle/keto-and-paleo-diets-what-they-leave-out-might-just-be-what-you-need-and-you-may-gain After reading the above article, I think the experts only know theories. They have no practical experience on low carb diet and especially the benefits on diabetes.

This is an important area that is seldom discussed in this forum.

I remember reading Jennie Brand Millers saying the bg of a diabetes peaks later than a normal person. Does that make sense to measure at 2.5 hours mark instead?

I come across the above product advertisement in fb. I think it is unethical to make such claims to diabetic patients like using it will lower bg to normal range by using it a few days. There is another company marketing grapeseed extract with before and after pics with a glucometer showing...

Many of us including myself have successfully controlled bg levels by carb restriction. I want to discuss if low carbs, lesser insulin can cause body to be less nourished given that insulin is an important anabolic hormone that drive many nutrients into our cells.

My dad recently has an episode likely for a few days after he was admitted to a hospital. This hospital basically gave its patients high carb diet three meals daily regardless of their diabetic status. I learned a few new things about managing diabetes. 1) once a patient become physically...

It was at a hospital ward. I was there for. Few hours visiting a relative. I saw this man at the next bed drinking a can of soft drink and food bought from outside. A few hours later i am not sure how the nurses detected he could have high bg and they went to measure his bg. I heard they saying...

I have tested a few elderlys over 75 years old. All of them seems to have weak first phase insulin response and have 2 hours post meal bg readings from 8.5-10+. As long as they do not eat more than 60g of carb, their bg level return to below 7.8 at the 3 hours post meal.

When taking 20-30 grams more carbs than the normal amount in a meal (the amount blood glucose is within healthy range after two hours), can walking for thirty mins one hour after eating help to control the spike?

Did it drop significantly?

Anyone have observed any difference in terms of taking fgl right after awaken while still lying on bed versus after going to the bathroom or after walking down a flight of stairs? I suspect after moving around a bit the fbg may be around 0.5mmol higher.

Have anyone come across any studies as to which phase worsen first in the development of type 2 diabetes?
