A member asked:

Please describe a good balanced diet for someone with high glucose?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Weight loss: A healthy well-balanced diet where you take in less food than you burn off. It's 3500 calories to gain or lose a pound. Check w/ a good registered dietitian. Weight watchers is a good program for support. Good luck.
