[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 2182047, member: 41816"] We really are all different. 6 (?) years of keto, and 2 years of carnivore, and my fasting blood glucose can still be anywhere from 6 up to 8+mmol/l Often the highest reading of the day. As far as I can tell, this is due to the morning adrenalin and cortisol (stress hormones) that the body produces to kick start the day. For me, it is apparently unrelated to blood glucose control during the previous day, or food choices the night before. Nor due to glucose stored in the liver. Irritating, but after 6 years I just have to accept it. I would suggest that you focus on the things you CAN control, like diet, medication (if you have any) and just observe your fasting and record it. There will be day to day fluctuations, and some peoples readings drift gently downwards over time, while others' readings hop down in steps over weeks or months. Mine bounce about like they are having a party. Hey ho. [/QUOTE]
