Also fruit,  high sugar ones are really to be avoided, many eat berries (other than blueberries) with cream, in small quantities with meals but fruit as a snack is just a sugary spike in a handy size container. A level around 50gm a day seems good for many. I find it is a comfortable level to stay at, and I get normal readings.Having a meter of your own really helps to point out those things spiking your BG levels</blockquote>
