I think these are the reasons why blood sugar will rise. As long as we find out the reason, we can find a solution.
1, overeating
Carbohydrate is the most likely thing to cause blood sugar to rise, and staple food is the main source of carbohydrate. This is why doctors emphasize the need to control staple foods.
Generally, diabetic friends had better eat about 6 meters (the weight of raw rice) every day. Note that the "rice" mentioned here actually includes all staple foods, such as rice, millet, noodles, steamed bread and so on.
In addition, many sugars like to eat sweet potatoes, yams, potatoes and other root foods, because most of them are rich in starch, so they should also be eaten as staple food, not as ordinary vegetables.
If the staple food intake exceeds the standard, for example, more than 2 Liang per meal, it may cause blood sugar to rise. At this time, the amount of staple food can be appropriately reduced.
2. Too little exercise
Exercise is a good way to lower blood sugar, especially after meals 1 hour, which has a good effect on controlling blood sugar after meals. Exercise also has many benefits, such as strengthening physical fitness, improving immunity and accelerating metabolism.
If diabetics eat regularly, but exercise too little, then postprandial blood sugar is likely to be high. At this time, as long as you increase the amount of exercise, you can have a better hypoglycemic effect.
It is recommended that diabetic patients do moderate-intensity aerobic exercise at least five times a week for at least 30 minutes each time, such as brisk walking, jogging, Tai Chi and square dancing.
3. Emotional fluctuations.
When people are nervous, angry or too excited, blood sugar will also be affected. Studies have shown that bad mood will inhibit the secretion of insulin, cause the increase of glucagon, and thus raise blood sugar.
Therefore, for diabetic friends, in terms of emotions, we should also try to maintain a peaceful attitude. No matter the illness or the pressure of work and life, we can face it rationally, learn to release the pressure and adjust our mood.
4. Insulin resistance
Diabetes is a chronic progressive disease, that is to say, once you get diabetes, with the growth of age, the course of disease will be prolonged, and theoretically, the condition will become more and more serious, which is related to the further damage of islet function.
Type 2 diabetes mainly has the problem of insulin resistance. If you take hypoglycemic drugs for a long time, the cells will also "resist", thus reducing the effect of the drugs.
It is suggested that diabetic patients can take medicine together under the guidance of doctors, and their advantages complement each other. After all, there are many kinds of hypoglycemic agents that can be used together.
Of course, if your blood sugar is still high after active lifestyle intervention and drug treatment, you'd better go to the hospital as soon as possible, follow the doctor's advice, control your blood sugar and reduce the risk of complications.
