You’ve been tracking your blood sugar for a week now. Now you get to use that information to determine your optimal blood sugar range, and thus learn to live in a way that keeps your blood glucose within the range that’s ideal for you.

Surprisingly, it isn’t just food that keeps your blood sugar in range. Over the next few weeks, I’ll keep revealing new secrets that, when applied to your life, will help bring your blood sugar numbers down, which can allow you to eat a greater range of foods and still stay in an optimal range.

    Calculate Your Blood Sugar “Peak Time”

    • Review last week’s charts.
    • For each meal tracked, determine the highest blood glucose reading. This is your peak glucose reading for that meal.
    • Determine the number of minutes it took from the time you finished your meal to the time you reached your peak.
    • Is your time to peak consistent for most meals?  (i.e. if it consistently takes 45 minutes to reach your peak, that’s your “peak time.”)

    Calculate Your Optimal Blood Sugar Range

    Using this simple formula, calculate the range in which your blood sugar should stay. You’ll spend the rest of this week continuing to track your blood sugar and start trying to keep it within your Optimal Blood Sugar Range, if possible.

    Using this simple formula, calculate the range in which your blood sugar should stay.

    • If fasting blood sugar is 95 or below (5.27 in international units), target to have a maximum peak of 110 (6.11 for international)
    • If fasting blood sugar is above 95 but below 120 (between 5.27 and 6.67), your optimal range is between your starting glucose at beginning of meal starting point plus at most 25 (1.39 innternational)
    • If fasting blood sugar is above 120 (6.67 international), the target for your peak is no more than 30 (1.67 international) points higher than your pre-meal level.

    You’ll spend the rest of this week continuing to track your blood sugar and start trying to keep it within your Optimal Blood Sugar Range, if possible.  As you follow the plan, your peak and fasting will continue to drop.
