The three P's are the common symptoms of diabetes: polydipsia, polyuria and polyphagia
stress, infection, steroids and reduced physical activity can cause hyperglycemia
Hypoglycemia:
low blood sugar
Type 2 Diabetes is the most common form of diabetes
rapid, short acting, intermediate and long acting insulin may be prescribed by your doctor
1800 calorie level = 225 grams of carbohydrates per day recommended
grains, beans, and starchy vegetables are all sources of carbohydrates
carbohydrate counting is a strategy to track carb intake and promote better control of your blood sugars
skipping meals, taking too much insulin and extra or unplanned activity can cause hypoglycemia
Remember to check portion sizes when practicing carbohydrate counting
vegetables, meats and fats contain little to no carbohydrates
Hemoglobin A1C (%) is the average of your blood sugar level over the past 2-3 months
The recommended target for fasting blood sugar is 90-130 mg/dL

Hyperglycemia: high blood sugar
look for "total carbohydrates" on a nutrition label to see how many grams are in the product
1/2 cup of cereal is equal to 15 grams of carbs or 1 carb choice
A1C% of 5.7- 6.4 = prediabetes
15 grams of carbs is equal to 1 carb choice
A1C% 6.5 or greater = diabetes
1 can of coke contains 39 grams of carbohydrates
1800 calorie level = 15 carbohydrate choices per day recommended
