A member asked:

How can i decrease my sugar level without medicine? my sugar level fasting 274 and after break fast 201. please help?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See details: It is highly unlikely you can control a fasting sugar of 274 on just diet and exercise. This level requires medication to prevent serious medical complication of uncontrolled diabetes. See a doctor now.
