I am 59 years old and diabetic for last 26 years. Recently my Hb1ac reading is 8.4 & fasting sugar level is 175 I am under medication of GLIMISAVE MV2 at half an hour before breakfast and GLURA M1000 after Breakfast with 3 glasses of water. I take GLIMISAVE MV2 half an hour before Dinner. I am fairly active and walk 4kms everyday without any break. I do have a fondness of sweets and addiction of tea(black & milk tea) without sugar added. My height is 163 cms and weight is 68 kg Please suggest me some remedies to correct my blood sugar level. Thankd

Ans: Managing blood sugar levels through diet is crucial for overall health. Choose foods with a low GI which will cause slower and more gradual increases in blood sugar levels. Examples include whole grains, legumes (such as lentils and chickpeas), non-starchy vegetables (like spinach and broccoli), and lean proteins (such as chicken and fish). Include high-fiber foods which slow down digestion and help stabilize blood sugar levels. Consume protein-rich foods like eggs, lean meat, legumes, etc. Sugary foods and refined carbohydrates (like white bread and sugary snacks) cause rapid spikes in blood sugar, so avoid them. Exercise regularly.

Question by abhicrpark@gmail.com - Mar 07, 2023Hindi

Health

I m 47 years old with current weight at 76 kg hieght 5ft 7 inch. I had borderline diabetes with Hb1Ac. 6.8 , weight 84kg in June 22. With diet control n morning walk for one hour , Hb1Ac now in range of 5.6, Fasting sugar at 10. I am without sugar medicines since September 22. My weight has been stagnant at 76kg for last 6 months. Pls advise how further i can improve my blood glucose level n reduce my stagnant weight

Ans: I think you are doing quite well. You have managed to get off the diabtes medications and have lost 8 kg in about 7 months. Subsequent weight loss is going to be much slower. I think you just need to continue with what you are doing at present (in terms of diet and exercise) . Further weight loss is going to be a very slow process. Your HbA1C levels are reasonable now. You must however understand that if you have a genetic predisposition to diabetes, diet and exercise can at best delay the onset of diabetes but may not be able to completely prevent it in the long run.

Question by Avik - Mar 10, 2023Hindi

Health

Ma'm I am diabetic for the last 10 years. I regularly take Ryzodec insulin twice (26 units in the morning before breakfast and 14 units in the night before dinner). I also consume high power medicines on a regular basis. For a remedy, I go for morning walk of 40-50 minutes which also consists of mild jogging and running. I stay away from deep fried food/snacks, any kind of snacks. I drink tea without milk and sugar. My morning starts with drinking Chirata( twice a week) and Karela Jamun Juice (Regularly). But even after following this routine on a daily basis my sugar level doesnot come to a satisfactory level; it always stays high and my HbA1C is 9.6. Kindly guide me what to do?

Ans: Hello Avik.. I understand that it’s very disappointing that even after following everything, HbA1c is not controlled.. I suggest you to go for AGM ( ambulatory glucose monitoring) and take proper dose of insulin and other medications.. if you are obese or overweight, weight reduction will help.. Consistency and discipline will help you to achieve better sugar control goals. Thank you.. I will be happy to help you.
