Hello and I hope my first post is ok. I did google this for some time but found that the word MEAL is used with abandon but no definitions of what constitutes a MEAL. While I was diagnosed last year with per-diabetic blood sugar levels it was this year when my call center took on support for a BGM company in another nation that I started to test my blood (needed to so I can have the first hand knowledge to walk new people through the process and for the readings I get I will continue to do so and be having a much longer talk with my Dr.as my readings have been between 7mmol/L and 13mmol/L). Now, these meters and the instructions and the information ALL say the exact same thing regardless of country: Pre Meal Testing and Post Meal Testing. The instructions go on from there (some that make little sense at all to me) but none of them have defined exactly what a meal is.
So, my question really is simple: What is a MEAL?
