[QUOTE="KK123, post: 1774222, member: 451727"] That certainly was interesting to read, the target being set at 4.6, which is what a 'normal' person's is isn't it? For any diabetic to achieve this I am presuming they would need to go extremely low carb, otherwise a type 1 or 2 trying to lower it to that level with insulin would put you at a massive risk of hypo's. It is fascinating stuff and seems quite obvious, lower your carbs and lower your A1c. I personally am lowish carb (around 50 a day) and I find that fairly easy once you cut out the obvious stuff. My A1c is currently 40 which is still way higher than recommended. Sigh. [/QUOTE]
