How to Lower After Breakfast Blood Sugars

How to Lower After Breakfast Blood Sugars
Have type 2 diabetes? You may have noticed that your blood sugars tend to be higher after breakfast than other meals. This is called the "Second Meal Effect".

Thankfully, researchers revealed an easy way to counteract the effect in the latest issue of Diabetes Care. They theorized that a high-protein snack before breakfast would counteract this effect. And they were right.

When study participants had a high-protein snack before breakfast, their blood sugars were 40% lower than when they didn't snack!

For the study, the snack was 75g of yogurt and 25g of soy beans. That's about 15g of protein, 15g of carbs, and 6g of fat.

Your Turn:
This is an approach you can easily verify yourself. Simply select two days where you wake up with the same blood sugar and can have breakfast at 10am.

On day 1, have a high-protein snack at 8am. On day 2, skip the snack.
On both days, test your blood sugar before and two hours after breakfast.
Did you see a drop? Try it out and share your results!

Clinically Tested GlucALite™ Lowers Blood Sugar
Diabetes Daily spoke with Danielle Jacques, a Registered Dietician & Nutritionist, about the nutritional needs of people with Type 2 Diabetes.

Danielle, do you have any nutritional or dietary advice for people with type-2 diabetes?
First and foremost, they should eat a diet that is has a low Glycemic load. Second, because they exhibit unique nutritional deficiencies, they can benefit from dietary supplements that nutritionally support and assist their body’s needs.

There are so many dietary supplements on the market making blood sugar claims. How do you know which one to recommend?
You’re right. Most of the supplements out there don’t work. And very few can back up any of their claims. Unfortunately, I had to find that out the hard way with many unsatisfied clients. Until recently, many clients needed to take 6 different supplements in efforts to address their needs. I searched for years for the right solution. Finally, I found GlucALite™. And you know what? GlucALite™ has been proven in a double-blind clinical study to be effective.

What is GlucALite™ and why is it different?
GlucALite™ is 23 quality vitamins, minerals, and plant nutrients all-in-one daily nutritional supplement. You could buy 6 different bottles but you won't get the great results shown in the clinical trials because of GlucALite’s™ unique formulation of superior quality ingredients. GlucALite™ is formulated to support and assist the unique nutritional needs of the body in addressing glucose metabolism and insulin resistance. GlucALite™ is one of the only supplements to complete a Double-Blind Placebo Clinical Trial and demonstrate real scientific evidence of drops in fasting glucose levels and triglycerides after just 30 days.

So the Clinical Trial is important?
Yes! Because this supplement has been shown to work in a double-blind study, I recommend it with confidence. It’s safe, easy-to-take, and clearly works. People who want nutritional support and assistance in addressing the unique needs of the body in dealing with type 2 diabetes can go to www.GlucALite.com to find out more.
