Hi! I have a question. Lately I've been curbing my appetite in the evenings by making my own turmeric latte (little heavy whipping cream, little coconut oil and ginger and turmeric diluted with hot water). It has really helped me stay away from eating too much out of boredom.

But I noticed my fasting blood sugar was 6 - 6,5 in the morning !! Before it was about 5,5. Do you Think sipping on my turmeric latte might cause this? I have been sleeping with difficulty lately too...can sleep disorders cause higher blood sugars?

Bad sleep can and does contribute to higher readings so that might possibly be the reason.

It will be really surprising if Turmeric latte had anything to do with the higher than normal readings.

I'm sure there's more.
A slightly higher reading but a reading many on here would love to attain so I really wouldn't worry about it.
