What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

7.4 - I know why, no mystery: During Saturday Grapes, Plums and my own root vegetable curry with two chapattis. Oh yes, and too much Lime Chutney. Proof positive, like I need it, that I have the condition called T2 that reminds me to be respectful of my EndoSys.

Lets have a calm, quiet and respectful Remembrance Weekend.
 


T2 for sure but with a very happy gut biome
 
Morning all. Have yet to read all the postings from about Wednesday. Had a great day and in the evening went down with a nasty tummy bug.. My bg's were, thursday 6.1; friday 6.5; saturday 6.7 and today 6.5. Obviously haven't been eating much so it proves I eat too much!! Watch this space! Have a great sunday folks.

Well, fructose ends up as glucose in your bloodstream, so will certainly contribute to your BG numbers.

Modern apple varieties contain high levels of fructose, so they're not particularly diabetic-friendly. Strawberries, raspberries, blackberries and blackcurrants OTOH are low in fructose, so the effects of a modest helping should be negligible.
 

Thanks
for the useful information.
