People with diabetes have to take extra care to make sure that their food is balanced with insulin and oral medications (if they take them), and exercise to help manage their blood glucose levels. Healthy eating includes eating a wide variety of foods including: vegetables, whole grains，fruits, non-fat, dairy products, beans,lean meats, poultry,fish. Life style - stress free life and do regular exercise.

Since many factors are involved like diet, exercise and the individual persons body, it needs continuous (regular) monitoring by the doctor along with the investigations. The good thing would be to control the sugar with a disciplined and healhty lifestyle along with medicines as suggested by the doctor. The dosage of the medicine or the type of medicine can be changed by the doctor depending on the overall health condition and the reports. So keep going for the follow up and follow all the good habits with determination and enjoy good health. You can also learn Yoga which is very effective to balance all the aspects of health and keep you fit and energetic.

Consult in private on Lybrate or personally with information about your main complains, lifestyle, lab results and diet for detailed advice. Start proper treatment else your health can deteriorate.

Mr Kapil, If you are feeling tired for no obvious reason then it is essential to get a hemogram and thyroid test done. Please tell me is there any noticeable change in the weight during last few weeks or month or so?.The reports will give us some idea about the possible reasons. In the mean time increase the protein intake and also green leafy vegetables and sprouted pulses.

Increase your thyronorm to 50 microgarm daily. Take low purine diet. Do not worry for sgpt. Do some abdominal exercise regularly.

lybrate-user, It is said a person consumes about 28 kgs of added sugar every year through various foods. This is in addition to sugar consumed through fruits & vegetables. Added sugar is mainly sucrose (white sugar) and fructose corn syrup which is added in foods. Excess intake of sugar is associated with obesity, hypertension and type 2 diabetes. There is nothing like upper limit. Basically it is best to avoid additional sugar totally if one wants to remain fit and healthy. There is no substitute to sugar. The synthetic substitutes also are harmful. Still one wants to consume more of sugar then it is his / her own choice. Thanks.

Dear lybrate-user, Nice of you to care for your mom. The fluctuations in her sugar levels isn't entirely due to diet. Proper dose adjustment of antidiabetic drugs along with slight modifications in her timings and content of food will help.

Mr Ammu, Possibly those could be boils, due to skin/ hair follicle infection by Staph aureus. Need to be treated with proper antibiotics and analgesics. Plus you should have excellent sugar control.
