Can a diabetic have a normal blood sugar level like a non-diabetic person>?
Question:
Answers:
That depends on what type of diabetes you are talking about. Not only is there Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes but there is high blood sugar and low blood sugar people as well.
For people suffering with high sugar diabetes the likelihood of that person having the same blood sugar as a non diabetic would could be do-able but very hard to maintain.
For people who suffer with low blood sugar diabetes the likelihood of that person having the same blood sugar as a non diabetic would could also be do-able but it won't likely happen at all.
When someone is diabetic their pancreas doesn't function normally like a non diabetic's would. And to expect your pancreas to do like it once did, is virtually impossible. Diet and exercise and taking your medication are all important factors in diabetic maintenance. Talk to your doctor about other ways and means you may be concerned about, he or she would be glad to give you more info about diabetes. Good luck and I hope I was able to help you!

Yes. I do. It IS possible. However, it is about portion control, planning, and balancing your therapy correctly be it medicine, exercise, or both.
I suppose it is possible if the diabetic person never ate anything that had carbs or sugars in it, and if his or her body never needed to use fat or glycogen that the body has already stored for energy. You have to understand that diabetics can be newly diagonsed and still have a portion of their beta cells (in the pancreas) working to produce insulin (insulin being the key to allowing sugar into the cell for energy). And some Diabetics, like Type 2, still have functioning beta cells but they just aren't as efficient with the insulin potentcy. It really depends on the type of diabetes and what phase of illness you are in. I would say that someone with Type 1 Diabetes, that is out of the initial phase of illness, must use insulin to maintain a normal blood sugar and exercise and eating right will NOT be enough. But with Type 2 it is possible and often preventable with exercise and proper diet. Hope this wasn't too much.
No . because of the insulin the body is not producing .. the blood sugar level will be different than a normal person.
Hi! Yes it is possible.I have Pre-T2 and I am constantly monitoring my food portions. Try drinking water 1 hour before you test you BS. Also,go to dlife.com.it is a great website.

It is possible, particularly in the early states of the disease, but it usually requires a rigorous diet and exercise program. Newly diagnosed diabetics often enter a "honeymoon period" for the first 1-5 years once they control their diet and/or start on medication. If you are eating the same diet as a non-diabetic that happens to be high in calories, fat or high glycemic carbs, it would be extremely unusual to have the same blood sugar level.
Note: Your blood sugar after a large meal will climb well after 2 hours after the meal.
If you have Type 1 diabetes, you will eventually need insulin to maintain blood sugar control, and the blood sugar is typically in the normal range only a portion of the time. For Type 2 diabetics, diet, exercise and medications can help for years.
Get an Hba1c blood test every 3 months. A value below is the same as a non-diabetic person. A value below 7 is the goal for diabetics to avoid long-term complications.
