Dear XXXXXXX
Hi & Welcome.
The normal blood glucose ranges for a healthy person are as follows:
1. Fasting (before breakfast with overnight fasting): less than 100 mg/dL
2. Postprandial (2 hours after meals): Up to 140 mg/dL
So, your blood glucose levels are withing normal range.
You need to have certain lifestyle changes to maintain a normal glucose level like:
1. Avoid sweets including the sugary drinks like sweetened soft drinks & juices, sweet teas and coffees.
2. Limit the intake of starchy foods like white rice & white bread instead take
non-starchy foods such as carrots and vegetables and whole wheat bread
3 Limit the intake of saturated fat (fatty meals) to reduce the risk of developing high cholesterol and heart disease.
4. Eat plenty of high-fiber foods, including vegetables, fruits, beans, and whole grains. Fiber helps you feel fuller longer and can help you eat less to avoid weight gain.
5. Avoid taking alcohol (if you are consuming) and stress.
6. Take lean meat (without fat), poultry without skin, & fish 2-3 times/week
7. Do regular exercise (aerobics & strength training) for at least 30 minutes/day to help you get to a healthy weight and maintain it once you're there
Hope the suggestions given above would be useful to you.
