Warming your finger may sometimes help increase blood flow. Insert the test strip into the meter. Use the needle (lancet) to prick the side of your fingertip. Gently press and/or massage the fingertip until a round drop of blood forms. Align the test strip with the blood drop, then gently touch the channel edge with the blood drop. After a short delay, the device will display your blood sugar level on the screen. Remove the used strip from its edge, and clean your finger with alcohol wipes. What is diabetes? Diabetes is a chronic disease characterized by a lack of insulin or its improper functioning, leading to high blood sugar levels. Types of diabetes: Type 1: the pancreas does not produce insulin at all. Type 2: the pancreas does not produce enough insulin, or insulin stops working properly. Gestational diabetes is a temporary condition where insulin effectiveness decreases in women during pregnancy. Common symptoms of diabetes: frequent urination, intense thirst, intense hunger, lack of attention and concentration, tingling in hands and feet, slow wound healing. Non-drug treatments and tips for diabetics: all carbohydrates affect blood sugar levels, so it is important to know the foods they contain. Choose healthy foods containing carbohydrates, and watch your portion sizes. Eat less salt. Eating too much salt may increase the risk of high blood pressure, which in turn increases the risk of heart disease and stroke. When you have diabetes, you are already more susceptible to all these conditions. Eat more fruits and vegetables. This can help you get the vitamins, minerals, and fiber your body needs daily to stay healthy. You can always try low or zero-calorie sweeteners (also known as artificial sweeteners) to help reduce sugar intake, such as Stevia sweetener or Truvia sweetener. Don’t forget to stay active. Increased physical activity is closely linked to controlling blood sugar levels and eating healthy. Remember to regularly measure your blood sugar using a home monitoring device. Thiozack capsules and Neurobion tablets help reduce diabetic neuropathy. If you experience symptoms of hypoglycemia, such as weakness, dizziness, increased sweating, rapid heartbeat, vision disturbances, or difficulty concentrating, it is usually helpful to consume food or drink containing sugar. Normal levels: Random blood sugar test: a blood sample is taken at a random time. Regardless of when you last ate, a blood sugar level of 200 mg/dL or higher indicates diabetes. A blood sugar level below 140 mg/dL is normal. A reading between 140 and 199 mg/dL indicates prediabetes. Fasting blood sugar test: a blood sample is taken after fasting overnight. A fasting blood sugar level below 100 mg/dL is normal. A fasting blood sugar level from 100 to 125 mg/dL is prediabetes. If it is 126 mg/dL or higher in two separate tests, you may have diabetes. Oral glucose tolerance test: in this test, you fast overnight, and the fasting blood sugar level is measured. Then you drink a sugary solution, and blood sugar levels are measured periodically over the next two hours.
