Controlling your HBa1c isn’t all that hard after all. Believe me or not, all it takes is some will power and exercise for an hour a day.

Everybody tends to do what they are asked not to. It is natural human tendency to do that. If we are asked to cut down on our calorie intake, it will be hard at first because we were used to having sweet stuff.

The main problem is to keep our minds away from sweet food articles no matter how tempting they are.

For that, I have a great idea that has worked for me and is surely bound to work for you.

Stock your house with food, all kinds of food but which do not have many calories and which do not have much oil or butter or cheese content in it.

For example, try having lots of salad, fruits, lemon juice and many more things.

Whenever you feel bored or hungry just go grab a small snack. For a few days try and completely cut down on your intake of sugar.

For example, if you love chocolates and eat a piece or two everyday, stop that for sometime say about ten days. After that you yourself will stop having chocolates because now your mind is adjusted to you not having chocolates.

Stop all intake of sugar for about ten days and you will realise that you don’t really need to have sugar anymore. You will see that your sugars are better controlled, you have a better HBa1c and you also feel good about yourself for having the will power to cut off extra sugar from your diet.

You aren’t cutting off sugar completely because most of the things that you eat does have sugar in it in small amounts which is enough.

Exercise daily for atleast an hour to keep better control on your sugar.

All this helps in a better HBa1c which makes you proud and the people close to you very happy.

I’m trying my new formula for the first time and it is working perfectly.

To get a good HBa1c, you don’t have to starve yourself to death to have your sugars controlled. All it takes is a bit of will power for 10 days and exercise everyday for an hour.

So, try it out for yourself once and you wont believe what you have achieved in the end.

The symptoms of this disease normally show in the form of unusual thirst, fatigue, weight loss, excessive urination and the like. If you think you have diabetes, you will need to run a diabetes test to confirm it.

Diabetes Treatment Depends On Correct Diagnosis

There are many types of diabetes. Your treatment will depend on what type of diabetes you are suffering from. In order to identify it, you will need to undertake a diabetes test. There are four types of diabetes tests,

1. Fasting plasma glucose test
2. Postprandial plasma glucose test
3. Random blood sugar test
4. Oral glucose tolerance test

Normally, the first two tests are sufficient for diagnosis. The third test can be done on a random basis to check the blood glucose level. The fourth test is ordinarily reserved for pregnant women.

1. Fasting plasma glucose test – This is the most common diabetes test used for diagnosis of this disease. You will need to give a little amount of blood (drawn from a vein). You would be required to abstain from taking any type of food prior to this test (minimum 10 hours). The blood thus taken will be checked for sugar content. Levels of 126 mg/dl (7 mmol/l) or higher indicate a need for a subsequent retest on a different day to confirm a diagnosis of diabetes. Results that measure only slightly above the normal range may require further testing, including the postprandial plasma glucose test, or the oral glucose tolerance test, to confirm diagnosis of diabetes.
2. Postprandial plasma glucose test – This is again another common diabetes test used for diagnosis of this disease. This is done along with Fasting plasma glucose test. You will need to give a little amount of blood (drawn from a vein). This is done two hours after meal. Hence, this test is also called Two Hour Postprandial Glucose Test. The blood thus taken will be checked for sugar content. The glucose values of 200 mg/dl or higher indicate diabetes. Generally, levels of less than 145 mg/dl (8.1 mmol/L) are considered normal (when using the glucose oxidase or hexokinase laboratory methods).

A laboratary result which measures much below the normal range can also indicate problems such as reactive renal or hepatic insufficiency, hypopituitarism, hypoglycemia, or malabsorption syndrome, and will usually require further diagnostic testing.

3. Random blood sugar test – This test is almost the same as the fasting plasma glucose test. The only difference is that you do not need to fast before the test here. You will be required to eat as usual before taking this test. The glucose content in this case would be a bit higher than the fasting plasma glucose test – however, if the reading is more than 200 mg/dl then you will be recommended for the fasting sugar test for confirmation.
4. Oral glucose tolerance test – this diabetes test is usually conducted to diagnose gestational diabetes in pregnant women. You will need to drink glucose mixed in water after which blood will be drawn at regular intervals of three hours each. Depending on the sugar level in the blood, the diagnosis will be made. This test is very seldom used for diagnosing diabetes for other patients (other than pregnant women).

Diabetes, once diagnosed, normally stays with you for the rest of your life. But, diabetes can, definitely, be controlled through proper diet, medication, physical exercise and close monitoring. If these steps are followed, a diabetic can lead a perfectly normal lifestyle.
