pauls started following Diabetes = elevated Blood Glucose Level (BGL) , The Power of Zero Carbs , A very recent A1c and 3 others

A very recent A1c
The results are in. The lab reported my A1c at 6.1%. Which compares to my CGM's reported 90 day Glucose Management Indicator (GMI) of 5.9. Nicely close. So retest in mid July, 17 weeks from now. Targeting < 5.0. Working out at gym 3x a week now. Yes following Bernstein's recommendations for men at 70 years old. And continue the Zero Carb Carnivore Lifestyle. The CMP panel was very good, nice kidney function!

Just the facts
The real issue in life is knowing how to learn. Like it or not it is each person's responsibility to learn what to eat. Nobody forced poor food choices on you. U selected the wat you eat. The medical community and the government were of little help. We been harmed not our fault, but yes, our problem. My world is the Zero Carb Carnivore Lifestyle. It took 4 years to learn that. Be well my friends.

Diabetes = elevated Blood Glucose Level (BGL)
That is what it is. It does not matter what type. It is high BGL. There, In my opinion, is no pre diabetes and no touch of diabetes. (This is Dr. Bernstein's way of thinking) For most, the real solution is a low or very low carb diet. I do a Zero Carb Carnivore Lifestyle. I follow Bernstein almost exclusively now. This morning I reached a new 7 day average BGL, 90 mg/dL. Headed to Bernstein's suggested target of 83. In the last 8 months I never been so ZERO strict. , next week I will have a new A1c lab. Once I get to the 83 mg/dL level i will resume reducing the insulin dose. My old BGL target was 114, that is the effect Bernstein has had on me. Be well

Here is a great representation of progress on my Zero Carb Carnivore Lifestyle. Over 7 days my BGL pattern. Shrinking into the 70 tp 100 mg/dL range all day long. Some medical doctors will be disturbed that it is diet and not pharmaceuticals driving the results. The daily BGL average for 7 days here is 94

I recently noticed 2 things in my Zero Carb Carnivore Lifestyle. Most everyone experiences the Dawn Effect, a natural rise in one's Blood Glucose Level in the early morning. Part of waking up. 1. Sometimes my rise is small, maybe 15 or so and goes down to normalize 30 b to 45 minutes. 2. Even my big Dawn Effect , like 30 to 40 mg/dL, returns to normal in a similar fashion. As one eats the appropriate human diet our bodies go better ! A side note: my 7 day, average BGL continues to drop, 94 this morning ! Look out 85, here i come.

That 99 is down to 96. Don't you just love it! My PCP does not know what to think, other than this must be dangerous and I'm going to have a stroke.
