A member asked:
I am 82 years. my blood sugar level is fasting 79 and after meals 219. what is the cause of this wide gap?

Insulin issues: It may be that you are having trouble producing enough Insulin right after a meal to control the blood sugar. But it eventually corrects. Therefore, do not eat large meals and do not eat a diet high in starches or sweets. You do not want to overtax your pancreas because that might push you into full fledge diabetes!
