[QUOTE="Nicola54, post: 1399943, member: 382418"] How do you achieve such low blood sugar readings as a 4? My lowest ever is a 5.8. What on earth do you eat? Are you low carb and high fat? My dietician told me this is not OK as it causes strokes and heart attacks. She is advocating a small increase in good fats but basically a very restricted diet. SO what is the basis of your diet so you can achieve these levels which are what a normal person is. Do you just watch your sugar levels fastidiously and remove anything from your diet that causes even a remote rise. What do you aim for say 1 hour after a meal and two hours after? Apparently I am and average of 7.5 (first three month check the other day) and my doctor says he is very pleased with me - but I think this is still way too high! I try not to eat any grains potatoes or sugar. I do test my blood but my doctor told me I didn't need to - I asked to so I know what is happening to my levels. [/QUOTE]
