Has anyone ever heard of eating meats and dairy raising blood sugar levels? For awhile I was not eating any meats and dairy and my blood sugar level was normal when it was tested back on 1/26/2008.  It was 83 (65 - 99) being in the normal range. Since then, I have added meat and dairy back into my diet. I really watch what I eat and make sure I don't eat anything with added sugar in it or any bad ingredients.


My DH has to check his blood sugar levels twice a day and for fun I decided to check mine along with his. His always comes out in the 80's and mine is always in the 130's. We eat pretty much the same thing. We had a treat night tonight and I tested my blood sugar level again and this time it was in the 150's.


The only thing I can think of that is different that I do since my blood test is that I have added meats and dairy back into my diet. So I'm really curious to know if that can affect blood sugar levels?

Yeah it was extremely high from the Treat night, that I can understand, but it is just weird that it is constantly over the normal limits no matter when I test.
