Is there any evidence that eating bitter melon helps to lower blood glucose level? if so, how much will need to be eaten?

Yes, good evidence: There is good evidence that eating bitter melon (or taking supplements with bitter melon extracts) had a modest effect on lowering blood sugar. More research is needed and it is hard to know how much is best but this article has a good review of the research and recommendations on how much you can try: https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/317724.php

Fit 35yr, generally eat low carb/sugar, but not keto. Fasting blood glucose has been slightly above 100 on 2 consecutive tests (102 and 105) but A1c is only 4.4 (4.2 lower limit of reference range). Diabetes possible, or ruled out by A1c levels?
