Avoid junk food, white flour, most sugar, fruit juice, and pop with sugar in it.

Switch to a healthier diet.

Eat complex carbs: things like whole grain breads instead of white bread. Whole grain pasta instead of white pasta, brown rice instead of white rice.

Eat a little more protien, but make sure its lean meat, beans, low fat cheese, or fish. No fried food.

Have smaller meals and add in a couple of healthy snacks per day.

Get tested for diabetes every year. I started out with hypoglycemia, and ended up with diabetes and so did my mother. I recommend you get tested. If you are already diabetic, you can feel like you have low blood sugar even when its too high.

Ask for an HbA1c test and a Glucose Tolerance Test.

Get them done every year to keep an eye on this problem. That way, if it does become diabetes you’ll know and can get started on proper treatment before it damages your nerves, eyesight, heart, kidneys and so on.

Good luck!

    Sugar would raise it, so chocolate and coffee would be your best bet. HOWEVER, don’t do anything with out consulting your doctor first. Certain meds will help as well. Just make sure you talk with your doctor first

    They say you should eat things like steak so it raises slowly because if you eat sugar or candy etc. to raise it, it raises it too quick and cause your pancreas to spit out even more insulin which could drive your blood sugar even lower than it was to start with…
