[QUOTE="Juicetin, post: 1660475, member: 321774"] Thats a very interesting link Alison. I found the quote below interesting: "If your blood sugar did not reach 140 mg/dl (7.7 mmol/L) an hour after taking a large dose of carbohydrates and if it was below 120 mg/dl (6.7 mmol/L) two hours after you ate the large dose of carbohydrate, most health authorities would also say that you are normal. These numbers, 140 mg/dl at 1 hour and 120 mg/dl at two hours after a meal are what Joslin Diabetes Clinic of Harvard Medical School defines as upward limit of "normal."" I think these numbers are lower than those published on the Diabetes.co.uk website? I thought that said under 7.8mmol 2 hours after eating was considered "normal" ? [/QUOTE]
