What if blood sugar is 129?

If your blood sugar is 129 mg/dL (milligrams per deciliter), it is considered to be high, but not dangerously so. However, you should still talk to your doctor about your blood sugar levels and discuss ways to manage them.

Here are some tips for managing your blood sugar:

* Eat a healthy diet: Choose whole grains, fruits, and vegetables, lean proteins, and low-fat dairy products.

* Get regular exercise: Exercise can help your muscles use glucose for energy, which can lower your blood sugar levels.

* Manage stress: Stress can cause your blood sugar levels to rise. Try to find healthy ways to manage stress, such as exercise, yoga, or meditation.

* Take medication: If your blood sugar levels are not controlled with diet and exercise alone, your doctor may prescribe medication to help lower them.

It is important to regularly monitor your blood sugar levels, especially if you have diabetes. If your blood sugar is 129 mg/dL or higher, you should contact your doctor for further instructions.
