I have been diagnosed for 2 years and my HbA1c is 51 (it was initially 65). I eat a low carb diet (about 50g carbs per day). My BMI is 25.
I have not been completely focused on diabetes management in the last year due to a cancer diagnosis, but have kept to a low carb diet.
I don't regularly test, and I was shocked to find my morning fasting blood glucose is 9.8. I need to get this down asap to be able to take part in a cancer clinical trial.
What is the best way to tackle this?
Go lower carb?
Fasting?
Exercise ?
Lose weight?
And is there any benefit in eating/exercising at different times of day?
I need to lower it quickly, within a week or 2, is it possible ?
Thanks in advance
