[QUOTE="Yorksman, post: 469236, member: 55568"] The paper still has something of the self fullfilling prophecy about it: "Recommendations [INDENT]Lowering A1C to below or around 7% Providers might reasonably suggest more stringent A1C goals (such as 6.5%) Less stringent A1C goals (such as 8%)" [/INDENT] The Belfast Study showed that decreasing [I]"fasting blood glucose levels from 10.4 to 7.0 mmol/L but that this abnormal level presaged the all-too-familiar deterioration of control."[/I] [INDENT][/INDENT] Why not encourage as many people as possible to get into the normal sub 6.0 range? There are a fair few on this forum who show that it is possible. Aim to be normal. [/QUOTE]
