About High Blood Sugar in the Early Morning
-
Skipping Breakfast
-
You may think that you should skip breakfast to lower your blood sugar. If so, think again. Eating breakfast is important for proper nutrition, so breakfast should be a priority.
Eating Habits
-
If you eat less at night, there will be less glucose in your blood while you sleep. This will make sure that your blood sugar isn't quite as high the next morning.
Exercise
-
Exercising before you go to bed can send glucose from your blood into your muscles. This effect can last for hours afterward, and your blood sugar the next morning should be lower.
Insulin
-
If you take insulin, ask your doctor about adjusting the timing or amount of your last dose before you go to sleep.
Blood Sugar Medicine
-
Ask your doctor about taking blood sugar medicine at breakfast the next morning to keep your blood sugar at a healthy level.
