The symptoms of high blood sugar can include:

– Increased thirst
– Dry mouth
– Increased hunger
– Frequent need to urinate

Symptoms of low blood glucose and how to spot it

We ask a group of random people about whether they know the symptoms of low blood glucose, hypoglycemia; and whether they know the symptoms of hypoglycemia can be confused with being drunk.

We’re about to reveal 8 AMAZING… but SIMPLE tips for keeping your glucose levels in a healthy range both after you eat and throughout your day.

1) Blood sugar spikes, also called hyperglycemia, and this can damage your nerves, eyes, and limbs.

2) While it’s extremely important to monitor your glucose levels before and after you eat, you may not realize that there are other factors which can contribute to high blood sugar levels, including environmental and stress factors.

3) First, it’s important to stay active. Aerobic exercise, which is moderate-intensity body movements that raise your heart rate, have been shown to help lower glucose levels. However, anaerobic activity, where muscles are put through more intense, short-burst movements, can actually raise blood sugar levels. So, jogging, cycling, walking, and even dancing can be great forms of exercise for lowering glucose levels. But weight lifting and other strength-training routines should be avoided if you’re looking to lower your blood sugar after a workout.

4) Studies show that regularly eating low glycemic index foods can significantly reduce fasting glucose levels over time. However, when it comes to quickly reducing your glucose levels, foods low on the glycemic index can help you achieve this goal as well.

5) Studies show that poor sleep can have a detrimental affect on your glucose control. And disruption of your biological clock, especially by staying up late into the night, has been proven to worsen insulin resistance. Therefore, it’s essential that you get quality sleep each night, and it’s best to avoid daytime naps.

6) Berberine is a traditional Chinese compound which recent studies show may have a positive effect on your blood sugar. Animal trials now suggest that this herb can help to increase insulin sensitivity, insulin production, and may decrease liver glucose production while slowing carbohydrate absorption.

7) Stress may come from many places, including an injury, an illness, or your environment. And chronic inflammation has been shown to increase insulin resistance. Therefore, it’s important to utilize calming techniques, like yoga, meditation, and mindfulness, day-to-day, to improve your mental and physical health. It can specifically work to help you lower your post-meal glucose levels.

8) The minerals chromium and magnesium both play an important role in fighting diabetes. Chromium can improve the effectiveness of insulin, and magnesium can help improve glucose uptake from your blood. Having a deficency in both minerals has been linked with an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

9) Dehydration can cause glucose levels to rise. A recent study showed that participants who drank more water had lower glucose levels than participants who drank less water. Plus, drinking water before a meal can work to decrease your appetite, which can help you avoid potential glucose-spiking desserts and in-between-meal snacks.

10) Fiber is immensely important for your health, in general, but also your for your blood sugar control. Many studies have shown that eating more fiber reduces calorie intake, increases the feeling of fullness, and slows down the absorption of nutrients.

Low blood sugar (hypo) – Safely in the Rainbow

type 2 diabetes No Comments »

One evening a young boy, Pâris (9), has a nightly hypo – meaning that his blood sugar drops too low. It is a very stressful and scary experience, both for Pâris and his family. The whole family gets involved and his parents must make the difficult decision on whether to give their son a glucagon injection or not.

This is a short clip from the documentary film Safely in the Rainbow, which is filmed over 16 years. Most of this particular scene was filmed by Pâris’s sister, Antje, who was only 11 years old at the time.

Watch the full film here: https://youtu.be/d-_X-pOKr8k

The film is produced by Wendy and Frédéric Mangeant in collaboration with Novo Nordisk.

🔎 In this video, we’ll share our 5 best tips to bring your blood sugar down quickly!

5️⃣ Drink Water
Experts recommend for people with diabetes to drink between 9 to 12 glasses of water per day.

By drinking more water, you can ensure the excess glucose is flushed out of your body, and stay properly hydrated.

4️⃣ Eat Fiber
Studies have shown that eating more fiber:
🗹 Reduces calorie intake
🗹 Increases the feeling of fullness
🗹 Slows down the absorption of nutrients

And as a result, it reduces blood sugar spikes.

3️⃣ Rest
Sleeping less than 7 hours per night increases the risk of hyperglycemia. Scheduling time for rest can help bring your blood glucose down. You can do that by:
🗹 Turning off devices
🗹 Meditating
🗹 Allocating a set nap time, and
🗹 Maintaining a nighttime routine.

2️⃣ Adjust Your Portions
You probably experience a spike in blood glucose right after a meal.

While it is best to speak with your doctor and dietician to find out what your body needs, you can experiment by:
🗹 Reducing snacking
🗹 Adjusting your portion, and
🗹 Spacing out your meals.

1️⃣ Exercise
When we exercise, it lowers the body’s blood glucose levels.

⚠️ On the other hand, you may want to avoid high-intensity exercise as these types of activities can push your blood glucose to rapidly crash and cause hypoglycemia.

Not Eating Sugar Yet High Blood Sugar Levels?

type 2 diabetes No Comments »

Are you doing keto and intermittent fasting, but your blood sugar levels are still high? This could be why. 

DATA:

Timestamps
0:00 High blood sugar levels 
0:10 Where is the sugar coming from?
1:09 Insulin resistance 
1:56 What to do for insulin resistance 

Do you have high blood sugar levels even though you’re not consuming dietary sugar? Today we’re going to talk about why this could be happening. 

In this situation, the sugar is actually coming from your liver and kidneys. There is something called gluconeogenesis, which is the formation of new sugar. Your body always needs a very small amount of sugar, but your body can make this sugar out of non-carbohydrate sources. It can make it out of fat, protein, and even ketones. Insulin controls this process. It’s supposed to turn off gluconeogenesis. 

When you have high blood sugar, but you’re not consuming any sugar, this could mean that you have very low amounts of insulin in your body. Your insulin may actually be too low. Insulin resistance is a condition that can cause you to not have enough insulin. 

With insulin resistance, you have high levels of insulin, but that insulin is not working in the body, and it’s not shutting down gluconeogenesis. It may be best to focus on improving insulin resistance. 

How to help improve insulin resistance:
• Exercise more 
• Increase your fasting 
• Increase your fiber (vegetable fiber)
• Apple cider vinegar 
• Vitamin D
• Chromium 
• Zinc 
• B vitamins (nutritional yeast) 
• Potassium 
• Magnesium 
• Get more sleep 
• Decrease inflammation 
• Give it more time 
• Focus on other improvements
