O.K. geniuses here is what i need. My father-in-law is a "conditional" diabetic. Basicaly, his doctor says if he looses 20 pounds he can come off of his sugar medication. He also has a blood sugar monitor. he tests his BS level every morning and evening, but the readings can varey greatly. one morning he can get up and his sugar will be 145, and the next it could be 90. What we both want is a general outline of how sugar levels change during the day, and how diet can affect these sugar levels. His doctor doesn't have a clue of how to explane this.
here is an example. one evening he goes out to dinner, has fried shrimp, oysters, and a salad. the next morning his sugar is 165 (high according to his doctor). the next evening he comes over to my place, has spagettie (regular pasta, not whole wheat), garlic bread, and beer. the following morning his sugar is 90.
thank guys.
