[QUOTE="Cocosilk, post: 2056879, member: 501623"] I just read somewhere on the diet doctor website that OPTIMAL blood sugar is in the 4s to low 5s. And rises of no more than 2 mmol after meals is better with between meals and fasting being back under 5 mmol as optimal. So while readings in the 6s are still normal, you could consider that you may have a little insulin resistance making fasting and post meals above 5.5 and in the 6s and try eating lower carb as a precaution. It's better than pretending everything is perfect until one day it's not. Respect that everything we put in our mouths counts and eat carefully, but don't worry yourself about it. You are safe and have the advantage of being able to stay safe by making smart choices now. [/QUOTE]
