Supposedly, the food in Italy and much of the rest of the Europe does not contain all the toxic ingredients found in US food.

Mostly every foodstuff in the United States consists to a large degree of high fructose corn syrup - a veritable death sentence in terms of blood sugar nutrition 😂

 

Ah well.... feck it.....it's cheap to manufacture and boosts profits.

Licorice is a Sugar management gift from heaven............natural licorice root expels sugar from the liver........but giving up sugar is only the first step, you need to reduce the carbohydrates, breads especially.  BTW Australian Licorice is the best, I eat several pieces a day, my morning sticks are about 112-130.  A1C was 5.7. -  4 years ago it was 11.6 - change your diet, your body will thank you for it.

As much licorice is good, it has some negative side effects. Lowering testosterone, Erectile dysfunction and also higher alderstone hormone, blood clotting, so better use it as a controlled supplement.

Used to eat this as a kid. Found it here and was overjoyed. After consuming,  felt worse than eating Swensens

I have all the symptoms but I don't know how to check it or treat it. I don't know if my levels are high or low in the morning.

 

Example. Last night I had buffet. Ate a lot of sweets. Woke up dizzy and sweating at night.

 

For the guys who have this problem, what do you normally eat during the day, especially at night here in Thailand?


The obvious best advice is go get a diabetes check from a doctor/hospital.

 

Assuming you are diabetic, the most likely cause is insulin resistance, but there are other causes beyond diet including diseases that cause diabetes.

 

Hence the necessity for a medical check.

 

Assuming it is diabetes and is related to insulin resistance then there’s a whole lot of learning to do on the range of foods that cause diabetes, it’s not just ‘sugar intake’.

 

Get a medical check and best of luck with the outcome.

OP needs to go to a Dr and get some relevant tests done.

I only know I'm pre diabetic because the Dr had routine tests done.

 

Anyway, give up sugar and

a/ lose weight

b/ not get your legs chopped off or go blind from diabetes.

c/ save loads of money

 

I did nothing other than give up sugar, and no diabetes for 2 years. I did lose a lot of weight. I'm only 2 kg more than what I weighed in 1996, instead of 16 kg more.

Tough to give up sugar—but you can easily reduce your intake.

I would advise to go 100% cold turkey. Refined sugar is poison, detrimental to health, stay away.

FFS.  No bread, no pasta, no pastry, no beer. no coke mixers, no ice cream.

 

And now, no fruit.

 

And we’re all going to die regardless.

 

Enjoy life.

 

Get that warm blueberry pie ala mode before you can’t 

If I was on the verge of becoming diabetic, I would eat poop if it was a cure.  I wonder what the happiness index would be when comparing unhealthy diabetics to healthy people?

A big NO NO for many Diabetics as salt is very bad for Kidneys as many have CKD
