It's a bit like those lit speed signs, that flash red when you find you're 2 mph over the speed limit. You should find that only minor alterations are needed to address this, it could be as simple as cutting out sugar in drinks, or sweet treats. Yes it's an inconvenience, but not a serious problem, and may never be, with the odd tweak here and there. Try not to worry about it.A Glucose monitor in my view is essential, if only for a short time, this will rapidly tell you what foods don't suit YOU. Then it's simply a case of limiting, or avoiding them. Worry and stress also impacts our sugar levels, so this reading may even be a blip, caused by your current circumstancesYou now maybe realise, that what we've been told for years is healthy, isn't. And take it from many of us here, that what has been demonised for about 50 years or so, ie meat and natural fats, is the food stuff the human body thrives on.</blockquote>
