I am a diabetes patient with more that 15 years but in control diet condition without taking any diabetes medicine.

To control my blood sugar level, every morning I took oat, wholemeal bread and low fat calcium milk with steam vegetables as my breakfast. Lunch time, as we are working and normally eat at hawker centre and we really can't control what food  we took. At night time, I will took a small bowl of  brown rice. Immediately after the dinner, i will take a walk about half an hours, so that to burn the carbohydrates from the food will consumed.

My daily routine is without failed, every morning i will check my blood sugar level. If today blood sugar level shoot high a bit said 6.8mmol/L. I will studies back what food I took and review foods that I should take less or avoid it. Not only that, I will extend my walking exercise time from half an hours to a hours so that, the blood sugar stored at liver can be reduced. That how, I control my diabetes level with control diet.  It is important to do regular medical check-up on HbA1c quarterly, so that you know your sugar level and food consumption to readjust and put extra time for exercise. When my HbA1c is high in that quarterly medical report, I will review back my food consumption and extend my exercise time.

Creatinine is a chemical waste product produced by muscle metabolism. When your kidneys are functioning normally, they filter creatinine and other waste products out of your blood. These waste products are removed from your body through urination. A creatinine urine test measures the amount of creatinine in your urine.

As an ordinary human being, sometimes we did not follow strictly the food consumption and a bit relax and consume a bit more carbohydrates food. That why it is advisable to make a date with your dietitian to taught you how to read the food nutrition, so that you can took the food based on food nutrition.
