[QUOTE="jocls, post: 1164966, member: 186416"] Thanks for your reply. BMI is flawed if people have large frames and are muscular. My weight is 86 Kg, my height 1.82 m. , but I have hardly any fat on me. I eat a balanced diet, including plenty of salads, and green vegetables, fruit, nuts and seeds and chicken, lamb and turkey. I eat nothing with added sugar in it . I avoid biscuits and cakes and eat wholemeal bread. My blood pressure is good. usually around 116/68. I exercise every day and my resting pulse rate is usually around 60 or lower. From my research online it seems caffeine can increase blood glucose. Remember, I suddenly started drinking espresso coffee after years of not drinking much coffee at all (the occasional instant). I have never smoked and rarely drink alcohol and then only one or two units. I had an eye test today and was told there was no sign of diabetic retinopathy. [/QUOTE]
