My husband's fasting blood sugar is 148 when checked yesterday. When we checked last Aug it was 150. He is not taking any medicine but is controlling food and diet. Please advise further for lowering the blood sugar, without taking any medicine. He walks every day for more than 30 mins morning and evening. His age is 38.

Hello, Thanks for the query. Fasting blood glucose 148 mg/ 100 ml is too high, signifies that he has diabetes. This needs treatment. Please check after food glucose level and HbA1c% as those values are very important. After food more than 200 mg & HbA1c% more than 6.5 5% means there is a need for regular uninterrupted treatment with appropriate drugs. Only exercise and diet is not likely to help in controlling his blood glucose levels. I hope you understand. Thanks.
