Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. Once after food glucose goes 200 mg & above it is diagnosed as diabetes. Then treatment is necessary. Diet and exercise do help, but in addition to drug treatment. So please initiate the same, in consultation with your local physician or a diabetologist. If you want online help, then please come in a private conversation with these details: Fasting, PP glucose levels, HbA1c%, dietary pattern, drugs being taken if any, lipid profile and extent of daily exercise. Then I will be able to guide specifically and even prescribe the necessary medication. Thanks.
