Maj. Bloodnok Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 Diabetes is a family scourge: it killed my grandfather and great-uncle, and it's slowly wearing down my mother. About a month ago, I did a fasting blood test for triglycerides and blood sugar. My fasting sugar was 105, slightly into the danger zone for diabetes. (Should be less than 99). Last week, my doctor did a A1C hemoglobin test, which gives a sort of average blood sugar for the last 90 days. My wife and I were sweating bullets waiting for the results. I just got the test results today.Normal ranges are 4.1%-6.1%; mine is 5.3%. I guess all the leafy greens and Tabata intervals are paying off...
