What is a sugar manager? If you are a diabetic, it would be best for you to

eliminate all candy, cakes and pies and cookies from your diet. They are

made from refined carbohydrates, and this will cause your glucose level to

sky rocket to way too high. Remember it is those very high glucose levels

above 160 that are at the root of practically all diabetic complications.

HHi Harry; Tell me, if I can keep my sugar levals down at about 6.8 average,

*as an average* Can I then indulge in some sweets? Do you know what I mean?

Ken, If you multiply 6.8 times 18, you come up with the American equivalent

and 6.8 is really too high a blood sugar. Keeping it around 5.0 is much

better for you. If you eat sweets, even with a 5 A1C, you will not stay

that way very long. Are you on insulin? If not, eating sweets will raise

your sugar high and it will take a long time for a type 2 to get it down.

Right, Harry?

Ken, Any thing such as pie or cookies is going to raise your blood sugar.

You c an test it out by doing a blood sugar (BG) and 2 hours after eating 2

cookies do another BG. You will see what it does to your BG. I think you

will find it not a good thing. You really need to keep our BG around the

5.0-5.5 level in order to prevent gradual complications from happening.

Eating sweet things every day will not enable you to do that; but it is your

decision.

I am wondering, as the subject indicates, if I can have that small piece of

pie or say a couple of sweet cookies, or such, each day if I manage to keep

my sugars down by taking say, some Metformen, or the like? You know,

enough to keep down the suger levels. BTW, I am trying a *cromium* tablet

that states on the bottle, that I should only take one a day, so has anyone

on list tried some of these natural food suppliments to keep the dreded

sugar down? I'm a type two diabetic. Thanks for any advise. Ken b in

Ken, I know exactly what you mean. You, like I, have a sweet tooth. You

can have all the sweets you like, provided you are willing to accept the

consequences for that indulgence. Before I became an insulin dependent

diabetic after three heart attacks and two heart by-pass surgeries and

finally for the past few years suffering with impotence, without a doubt I

can say that satisfying that sweet tooth can cost you all of the

complications mentioned here. I always satisfied my sweet tooth with the

blessings of the doctors, since my A1C's for more than 15 years always ran

below 6.0. I had these complications due to ignorance on the part of the

doctor and also on my part. I am not going to let you be ignorant today,

since the research and technology for the past five or ten years tells a

completely different story, and even today some of the doctors are learning

that high blood sugars are the primary culprit for diabetic complications.

You need to understand the process of glycation, which happens to all

individuals whether diabetic or not. It is a topic we can address in other

messages, if you like. I assume you are talking about the mole measurement

system used in the UK. If you average 6.8 on this glucose measurement as an

average over time, your A1C will also be 6.8, which is well above 6.0, where

I developed all the complications I have mentioned that happened to me. To

convert mole measurements to the USA glucose measurements just multiply the

mole number by 18 or visa versa divide the USA glucose measurement by the

same number 18. A mole of 6.8 is equivalent to a USA measure of 122, which

is not good as an overall average at all.

To avoid diabetic complications you would be well advised to run as close as

possible to what the average A1C's of a non-diabetic would be. The average

range for a non-diabetic would be between 4.2-5.2, and I would doubt your

physician even knows this range. Most doctors are told or learn that it is

just fine for the diabetic to run moles or A1C's at 7.0 or lower and the

patient will be just fine. However this is not true. I prefer to teach

prevention of complications rather than the treatment of complications that

are sure to come at high sugar levels. Diabetic complications are rare in

diabetics who run an A1C of 5.5 or lower. This would be the same in UK mole

measurements or in USA measures a daily glucose level of 99 or less.

This is a fact. Refined carbohydrates are like a poison for the diabetic

and pre-diabetic. As smoking cigarettes is a very dangerous thing for a

person to do, it is likewise dangerous for the diabetic to mess around with

refined carbs like sugar, flour and fruit juices just to mention a few of

them. There are some on this list serve who even went completely blind as a

result of running 6.8 and lower.

You are getting this message from a person who can be said to be without a

doubt a sugar and tobacco adict, who now abstains from these indulgences,

which I still crave from time to time on a daily basis.

Having written the message at the bottom of this one, I confess that from

time to time I indulge in refined sugar like a piece of pie, a bowl of ice

cream and a piece of cake or even a piece of candy, but this is done

sparingly and usually on special occasions like birthday parties. I use a

fast acting insulin like Humalog to bring my glucose level within range, but

the more carbs one consumes the more difficult it is to dose properly to

maintain strict glucose control. If one does not use fast acting insulin, I

would imagine it is more difficult to keep those glucose levels from spiking

in the high unacceptable range. Now whenever I get a craving for sweets, I

use sugar free jello, nuts or pork rinds to deal with those sugar cravings,

even though they are not sweet or as satisfying as a big fat Butter Finger,

a Milky Way or a bag of M & M's would be. With practice and repeated failures

I have learned it is just not worth the effort and abuse to eat sweets and

try to go through the one or two days of messed up glucose levels to get

them back in strict control again. If you do not use fast acting insulin,

it may take even longer to get those sugar levels back in the normal range

again.

Hi ; If I can keep my sugar levels down around about say, 6.0, would

that allow me to indulge in a cookie or two each day? I want to do what's best

and at the same time, I want to do right for my health and as you can see, I'm

just trying to clarify my understanding re how to do this or that in general.

Ken b

how much can I have of the sweet stuff using a

sugar manager!

I am wondering, as the subject indicates, if I can have that small piece of

pie or say a couple of sweet cookies, or such, each day if I manage to keep

my sugars down by taking say, some Metformen, or the like? You know,

enough to keep down the suger levels. BTW, I am trying a *cromium* tablet

that states on the bottle, that I should only take one a day, so has anyone

on list tried some of these natural food suppliments to keep the dreded

sugar down? I'm a type two diabetic. Thanks for any advise. Ken b in

toronto hoever comes to god must believe that he is and that he is a

rewarder of those that dilagently seek him!

Harry, does this apply for a brittle diabetic also? is it possible to get

total control for such a person? yesterday afternoon I was two point three,

before supper four point six, before bed seven point three, and woke this

morning at twenty point six.

I did not think I did anything different other than I have not been feeling

well. both my and i husband have had a bug of some sort which we are

finding very difficult to shake . I aim for five but still get some

surprises like this. I know not feeling well can throw it off and I really

do work at avoiding the highs and the lows. any comments, thanks, from

Canada

off the sugar readings? thanks, from Canada

, if you are taking iron because you are anemic, your A1C may actually

be lower than what it actually is. It has been proven that anemic people

people measure a lower A1C because other is not enough red blood cells to

hold glucose, so your measurement is off. My friend was dialysis and her

endo and nephrologists told her this as she was so anemic from the dialysis

that her A1C's were 4.2., but her blood sugars did not warrant that low an

A1C. After they started giving her a certain med for the anemia and her red

blood cell count up, so did her A1C.

, if you are not feeling, well, it could very well make your BG go up.

Also, I had an experience the other night. Before bed my BG was about 8.0

(estimate as I cannot do 18 times something too accurately in my head!),

woke up at 1:30 and it was 5.0 and got up 6:30 and it was 18! I apparently

went into reaction after 1:30 AM and my body put out a load of glucagons to

raise the blood sugar. It is called a rebound reaction and took me half the

day to get it back down to normal. Very frustrating.

Re: how much can I have of the sweet stuff using

Harry, does this apply for a brittle diabetic also? is it possible to get

total control for such a person? yesterday afternoon I was two point three,

before supper four point six, before bed seven point three, and woke this

morning at twenty point six.

I did not think I did anything different other than I have not been feeling

well. both my and i husband have had a bug of some sort which we are

finding very difficult to shake . I aim for five but still get some

surprises like this. I know not feeling well can throw it off and I really

do work at avoiding the highs and the lows. any comments, thanks, from
