My blood glucose reading is yo yo ing  . The food intake is the determinant. Yesterday I finished half a bottle of Revive that was hibernating in the fridge for a long time, a quarter bar of Lindl’s  creamy chocolate, 3/ 4 plate of rice with fried chicken and sambal  belacan. I had a whole apple at about 5 pm.  Now this morning the sugar reading spiked to above 6! Its 6.4. I have been successful in keeping the level down to below 6 during the past few days and weeks. 

If according to the health chart reading below 7 is still considered to be excellent. 

 

0n. 2.8.2023 :-

 

My HbA1c (NGSP) was 6.4 %  The ideal range should be < 5.7%

HbA1c (IFCC) was 47 mmol/mol. Ideal value is <39 mmol/mol.

 

That puts me in the pre-diabetic category.Almost there but not yet there! 

 

In the meantime, before the next HbA1c test in January 2024, eat well.this test is a snapshot of how well my glucose levels have been running on average.  Exercise, sleep, stress less and do what you can to gain/ maintain good control.  Keep the daily carb count under 60 grams per day. 

It’s well worth the effort to stay in good health. 

 

##The relationship between A1C and eAG is described by the formula 28.7 x A1c-47.7 = eAG
