Diabetes Type 2 Support Group

Type 2 Diabetes is a condition in which the body either does not produce enough insulin or does not make efficient use of it. Insulin is a hormone needed to convert food into glucose, a sugar that the body uses for energy. Without enough insulin, glucose can accumulate in the blood, and can cause serious health problems such as heart disease and strokes and organ damage...

I know this is an old questions and different people have different levels.
My doc has also told me.... But from your experience ....

1) How much should the sugar level be post eating after 2 hours.

2) Is non veg food bad for us? Like some doctors like Neal Bernard say?

3) Our body has symptoms since it is not used to low levels around 130. Do these symptoms go away with time? Or they stick with us for a lifetime??

Please share your thoughts and experiences.

Have a great day!

I think they want it to be below 200. Some non vege food is bad like white carbs but you can sometimes eat it in moderation. I think the symptoms go away after your body adjusts to the lower blood sugar levels.

most will say 120-160 2 hrs after a meal. in time your body will adjust to the lower numbers when you get into control.

and remember it is a healthy diet, using control of your portions, making changes, etc
