Of course Sulablue--nothing is true for everyone but I don't think what

you are calling a " spike " is really one. Sounds more like the Dawn

Effect & you have managed thru trial & effort to learn how to handle it

properly for YOU. You are not taking a rise & triggering a

rollercoaster but are managing to mitigate that small rise down to a

steady lower level which is what prevents damage to our body. Your way

is a good way (small amounts of food almost constantly) & probably works

for many but as you say not for everyone. We all need to do the trials

& testing & find what works to keep a steady lower level for ourself.

& yes I am VERY concerned about surging spikes because of the terrible

damage which is being wrought & which few doctors explain to us or even

understand themselves.

My idea of good control is DO whatever works to keep a steady low

non-diabetic

level for YOU. WHATEVER it takes, no matter WHAT it takes.

Yes we are all human & fail at times (sometimes many times) to achieve

what we aim for but the aiming is the important part & to aim correctly

one must have information to put one on the right path to more

non-diabtic bg levels.. Without that one may think one is doing ok but

may not be at all.
