Type 2s: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning? (very low chat level)

[Keesha]

6.9 at 5:30am, that's the last time I am eating salted peanuts ever...

I thought peanuts are low glycemic food so it should not raise blood sugar very much. Did you eat anything else besides peanuts?

How many peanuts did you eat.

How many peanuts did you eat.

Half of a 375mg packet, and it was not the salad we had for dinner last night that did it.

It might have just been a case of too many peanuts. I love peanuts.and they don't raise my BS but I also try not to eat too many of them plus a always buy mine from the bill bins at Pak n Save because they are the lowest in carbs.

I think you are right about the amount eaten. Too much of anything will raise blood sugar.

My bgs increase on too much protein, must have topped you up too much.

Too much protein do increase blood sugar slowly but it does not spike blood sugar like how simple carbs do. I hope I am making sense.

My bgs rose as day progressed on protein, especially nuts if eaten inbetween meals and too many.

Happy New Year everyone 3.8 for me this morning.

New year = new nudge: Could I just remind folks the purpose of this thread is to record fasting blood scores, with any additional chit-chat played out on more appropriate threads.

Thank youuuuuu.
