[QUOTE="KK123, post: 2278665, member: 451727"] Hi Kev, I saw something similar online about a man (a Doctor) who was not diabetic but wore a device for a few weeks and ate a variety of meals (very high carb, medium, low and no carb). His graphs were very interesting, very similar to the American Dow!!!! They regularly went into double figures but generally came down quickly, but most of the time his levels were up and down the whole day long whether he ate or not, whether he exercised or not and a multitude of other variables. Several tests were done before, during and after in order to establish whether he had a glucose intolerance etc and the answer was no, he was perfectly normal in all aspects. (Obviously you could say ah but was he by going into double figures but as far as the experiment went he was certainly deemed to be a non diabetic). The moral of the story?, carbs raise glucose levels to 'dangerous levels' if you consume too many for YOUR body if only for a short time. I sometimes think all they need to do is lower the cut off level for diagnosis and the entire population could be classed as diabetic or at least glucose intolerant. x [/QUOTE]
