[QUOTE="Wurst, post: 611248, member: 44101"] If you keep your blood sugar in the non-diabetic range then your 'wounds' heal normally and quickly. I am forever getting blisters and cuts from running and cycling and they heal quickly because I keep my BS below 5.5 mmol at all times. Since I started daily exercising ~ 2 years in all seasons (i.e. cycling in the minuses, rain etc ) and all conditions I haven't had a single cough / cold / infection/ illness. In my opinion, If you follow the NHS guidelines for blood sugar levels then you can expect slow healing wounds and prolonged illnesses. [/QUOTE]
