Dear doctor. I just did a quick blood sugar test and my result is 12.7. Can your doctor advise you on how to lower your blood sugar to normal without taking medication? For example, through eating, living and exercising. Thank you!

Hello,
Diabetics should eat and what should not eat should follow the advice, certain indications of the doctor. Besides, it is necessary to know and understand the principles to avoid high blood sugar, prevent and slow down the complications of diabetes:
Divide your diet into several meals a day to avoid sudden blood sugar spikes. Eating in moderation, on time, should not be too hungry, or too full. Do not change too quickly and too much the structure and volume of daily meals. It is necessary to exercise after eating, avoid lying down, sit in one place after eating, spend time doing sports to ensure health and support diabetes treatment. You can refer to the article: What should people with diabetes eat and what should abstain? was professionally consulted by Doctor Nguyen Thi Dieu Nga - Department of Examination & Internal Medicine, Vinmec Nha Trang International General Hospital. The article will provide a good amount of knowledge about proper nutrition as well as foods that people with diabetes need to avoid.
