If a person in unable to regulate his or her blood sugar, the first consideration would be their diet. It is extremely important for diabetics to understand how food interacts and affects their blood sugar. A meal diary is a good start. Write down everything (every thing! bites & nibbles included) you eat and the amount for a 24 hour period. Be sure to take your blood sugar before you eat and 2 hours after you eat to see how certain foods affect you. Portion sizes should be looked at when preparing a meal because what is on the side of the box is "X" number of calories/carbohydrates/proteins/sugars etc. per serving. It is very important to have regular visits with your health care provider to discuss blood sugar levels and diet recommendations. When your blood sugar is unstable you may need to see your health care provider weekly or biweekly until the right combination of diet, medication/insulin is achieved.
