Thanks!I always had a A1C around 6.2 until about 7 years ago then got it down to 5.4 and kept it between that and 5.7 until recently then back up again! Seems I turned 70 and everything went south! Have stage C
esophaguses and ulcers, and now this stage 3 kidney, high blood pressure and A1C. Was always healthy. Only eat whole foods. No sugars or carbs!! Exercise regularly!

Should you have processed foods, lots of bread, etc., much of what we eat is later converted into sugar. So it is nice to avoid candy bars and the like, a good dietitian can show you how to make better food choices to slow down or manage that sugar conversion.

Congratulations on the exercise. Unfortunately, we don't talk about exercise as much as we should on this forum. Thank you for reminding us of its importance.

Try intermittent fasting. Fast until between 12 and 1 daily.
Check a book. The Oldest Cure in the World by Steve Hendricks.

You can find a bunch of interviews on Youtube.
