[QUOTE="Squire Fulwood, post: 1371634, member: 44622"] The recommended levels may differ according to which country you live in. In the UK the official recommendation is to be below 8.5 two hours after eating. I am unable to say what evidence supports that recommendation and I suspect it is a judgement call from someone experienced in treating diabetes. Individuals on this site often make up their own targets and they are probably more valid than a one size fits all target. I have seen posts from people who just lower the target to 7.5, some who try not to raise more than 2mmol 2 hours after eating and one or two who like the before and after readings to be similar. So, the recommended levels can be taken as a guide rather than a law and you can set your own targets. [/QUOTE]
