| Seem to have very high readings on getting up in AM, Why? |
| Anybody know why this is and what do I do about it? Seems to not matter what you do the night before, or eat etc. No pattern, just all over the place crazy high readings in the AM on arising. Anyone have suggestions how to fix this?

It's called the "dawn phenomenon". I got the following info from a Dr. I know who practices alternative methods of handling diabetes. This was a news brief he sent me by email. He sends out one brief a month - pretty informative. If you want to get on the mailing list, just go to www.reversemydiabetesnow.com and request his free report. Then it asks you if you want to opt-in to the mailing list. Anyway, here's what he had to say:
"I am often asked why the glucose reading that one gets in the morning, after hours of no food intake, is often the highest reading that a diabetic gets all day. I recently had a patient tell me that when she went to bed one night her blood glucose level was 140 and when she got up the next morning it was 175. How could it be that after eight hours with no food, her glucose levels were noticeably higher than the night before? This strange fluctuation in blood glucose is referred to as the 'dawn phenomenon.' There are a few possible reasons for phenomenon and I will go into some of them below.
"One hypothesis is that the liver stores glycogen (storage form of glucose) and after hours with no food, the liver dumps some glycogen into the bloodstream so that the body will not run out of fuel, hence the rise in blood glucose.
"Another observation is that the body has a sort of rhythm and there are fluctuations in certain nervous-system functions, as well as hormones within your body at different times of the day. Usually between five and six a.m., your autonomic nervous system shifts its operating mode from a para-sympathetic dominance (the parasympathetic nervous system is the part of your nervous system responsible for rest, repair and eliminating waste) to sympathetic dominance (the part of the nervous system that shifts the body into higher gear and makes you feel awake when you get up).
"This shift in nervous-system function is started by the body |

MY ANSWER WAS CUT OFF. HERE'S THE REST OF IT:
"Patients who experience the dawn phenomenon have asked me if they should skip breakfast to get their blood glucose levels back to normal. My recommendation is always to eat a healthy breakfast and to work with nutritional changes and organic whole food digestive formulations to get their morning glucose levels in an optimal range. It would be especially smart to pay attention to the foods that you eat in the evening and before going to bed if you are consistently waking up with high morning glucose levels." |

Tacking an 18% tax onto pizza and soda would reduce Americans' intake romain jerome watch of calories romain jerome watch, which would in turn help slash health care costs by an romain jerome watches astounding $147 romain jerome watches billion a year, according to the study's authors.

Though I believe that there is an obesity epidemic I am a statistic ulysee nardin myself, I have ulysee nardin a tough time believing the study offers much of a solution. For one zenith watch thing, pizza zenith watch isn't especially bad for you, and whole milk is not especially nutritious. Pizza clocks in at about 300 calories zenith watches for single zenith watches plain slice, according to CalorieKing: That's not a salad -- which can become an orgy of zenith calories depending zenith on the type of dressing you choose -- but it's not as bad as a alain silberstein watch McDonald's alain silberstein watch Quarter Pounder, which has 510 calories. |

Of course, pizza gets more fattening when you add alain silberstein watches meat-based alain silberstein watches toppings to it such as peperoni. As for milk, some experts alain silberstein have questioned alain silberstein whether drinking it is especially good for people. Whole a lange sohne watch milk is the a lange sohne watch most fattening variant, with 147 calories in a single serving. For a lange sohne watches their part a lange sohne watches, the authors argue that they are not trying to demonize a lange sohne any particular a lange sohne food. |
