If you have diabetes

If you have diabetes, the best way to manage this is to eat consistantly and regularly a high carbohydrate diet. Enusre you have your 5 a day but not too much high sugar fruits such as oranges and mangoes.  Try to keep your blood sugars between 6-7mmols as this doesn't damage the nerve endings and eye damage. The gp's call this neuropathy disease. This is where the nerve endings die by slow deterioration with the high sugar rotting them.

If you eat high sugar foods and know this the best thing to do is to go out for a long walk or do some vigorous exercise to use up the sugar running in the blood.

The symptoms to watch out for in high or low sugar is dizzy spells, severe hunger, excessive urine output and slurring like a drunk man.If you experience theses symptoms then you must seek advice soon as possible.
