What is a healthy BS range for a type 2 diabetic not on insulin to strive for.

[Guest guest]

In some books I've read 80 to 110 fasting and anything below 180 after

eating and in others I've read lower. Which is the best range to

avoid the long-term diabetic complications.

I have learned so much from this forum. I don't think I'd be doing as

well as I am. Dr. Bernstein's book is what I am following and it is

working great.

Hi there Margaret:

The numbers you cite below sound about right to me. I am type 2, have been for

about 7 years. Mine range usually 80 to 120 or 130 before eating and actually

can go up to 180 plus but less than 200 after eating. I do have those times

where I wait too long to eat then my numbers go lower than 80...or I eat what I

should not and they go above 200.

My opinion based on what I've learned is the ranges you mention below seem about

right.
