[QUOTE="CSI007, post: 96238, member: 13062"] Well, I'm not terribly concerned about the 167. My wife pulled the same BG that I did and she ate less then me. She is definitely not pre-diabetic either. Her numbers are fine. I read mixed things on post meal glucose levels for non-diabetics with some graphs showing spikes over 180! Non-diabetics should be below 140 in 2 hours and it seems it really depends on the amount of carbs one eats. "For someone without diabetes, a fasting blood sugar on awakening should be under 100 [B]mg[/B]/dl. Before-meal normal sugars are 70–99 [B]mg[/B]/dl. “Postprandial” sugars taken two hours after meals should be less than 140 [B]mg[/B]/dl." The study you linked does not mention the amount of carbs consumed (unless I missed it?) for the study. I am always skeptical of medical studies. The report talks about mortality rates in the groups over 33 years. I mean come on, people DIE all the time. It doesn't even say what they died from. They could have been run over by a car. :) Maybe it's buried in the actual study and not reporting in this article. My goal here is to improve my insulin sensitivity and get off metformin in a year or so. We'll see, I read many forums where DIABETICS have gotten off insulin and metformin in a year with diet and exercise modification and are able to maintain their BG in healthy range. [/QUOTE]
