My weight is under control and I exercise regularly. Four years ago my blood sugar was 6.5 mg/dl and now I have brought it down to 6.2 mg/dl. Indian doctors do not consider me diabetic but a French doctor says I have type 2 diabetes. Can you tell me which out of this is correct? What precautions should I take, other than avoiding sugar? Is it possible to correct my sugar level through diet and exercise?

Some doctors tell you that you do have diabetes, but others say you don’t …??? Diet is critical actually. Too many people don’t make any effort to change their diet and this is a big problem. Proper diet alone can actually make you stay pretty healthy even if you have diabetes.

Just something to think about. it worked for me.
