Diabetic bread

Its all about numbers...... 106mmol/L indicates a pre diabetic state....Usually checked with an HbA1c test.
13mg/dl ......indicates your blood sugar - usually with a finger prick test.
Your normal (non diabetic) blood sugar would be between about 5 - 7 on the finger prick test and a fasting blood test would show 70-99 on the HbA1c test.
So you're not that far away from getting your blood sugars into a "normal" range. Hopefully you'll be able to get the sugar level down with diet and medications, rather than going in with both feet and starting on Insulin. Good luck....
Started insulin 6 yrs ago playing catchup i think.
Had all the symptoms when i was 10 but not diagnosed until 50 so 20 years on paying the price.....
 
White bread generally has a high glycemic index count meaning it releases quickly in to your blloodstream causing blood sugars to rise rapidly and when risen can drop rapidly , often whole meal or brown breads have a lower Gi & combined with other slow release foods can give more stable blood sugars , i appreciate they might not be to your taste , Research foods as there GI & carb content can often be not what you would think they are .
