Today ,is the very first time I have not experienced significant dawn phenomenon since diagnosis. Nomrally my blood sugar peaks around 11.00 and it's normally well over 6.7 , lately low sevens.
Today it peaked at 5.7 so in the interests of trying to pin down why - what was different:
Over the last three days I have drunk more apple cider vinegar morning and evening .
I have been leaving my first food in the day until around 1 pm and my last around 9pm
Over the last two days I took a probiotic to try to get my gut biome in better order.
I have been having my blended coffee plus spices drink at least twice a day.
My evening meal was small portion of home made fish soup followed by two egg omelette with plenty of butter, plus 12g of dark chocolate finished around 9 pm - it did not register on my meter.
Last night I went to bed earlier than usual , around 10.30 and woke earlier than usual around 5.30 am . Overnight about 5.0 rising to 5.7 maximum. Blood sugar never rose above 5.7 since round 1.00 pm yesterday and has not fallen below 4.4 either .
I guess time will tell if its a fluke or repeatable and maybe the above will help me identify why 1
