[QUOTE="Waterfall 888, post: 2214201, member: 519313"] [USER=519463]@Xal[/USER] Recently changed my diet and bg is 5 - 8'6 mmol most of the time. No hypos :-) but goes up to 12mmol during the night or after meals. This rise only happens when I eat wholemeal toast before bed and certain foods like sweetcorn or lentils.
