WHY FASTING SUGAR LEVELS ARE HIGH IN THE MORNING
Diabetes, a chronic medical condition, is characterized by elevated levels of blood glucose (sugar) due to the body's inability to effectively regulate it. This results from either insufficient production of insulin, a hormone produced by the pancreas that helps regulate blood sugar, or the body's inability to respond to insulin properly. Diabetes can be broadly classified into two main types: Type 1 diabetes and Type 2 diabetes.
Insulin Resistance:
In type 2 diabetes, the most common form of diabetes, cells become resistant to the effects of insulin. Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas that facilitates the uptake of glucose into cells for energy. When cells resist insulin, glucose remains in the bloodstream, leading to higher fasting blood sugar levels.
why fasting blood sugar levels are high in the mornings?
Fasting sugar levels are often elevated in the morning due to a phenomenon known as the "dawn phenomenon" or "dawn effect." During the early morning hours, typically between 2:00 AM and 8:00 AM, the body undergoes several physiological changes. One key factor is the release of hormones such as cortisol and growth hormone, which play roles in waking the body and preparing it for the day.
These hormones stimulate the liver to release glucose into the bloodstream. This natural process is intended to provide the body with a source of energy to kick-start the day. However, in individuals with diabetes or insulin resistance, this release of glucose can be excessive, leading to elevated fasting sugar levels in the morning.
How to manage the fasting blood sugar levels?
Reducing insulin resistance and visceral fat deposition is vital for managing diabetes and improving overall health. To achieve this, focus on adopting a balanced diet that emphasizes whole foods such as fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and healthy fats. Pay attention to portion sizes to prevent overeating and excess calorie intake. Engage in regular physical activity, incorporating both cardiovascular exercises and strength training to burn calories, reduce visceral fat, and enhance insulin sensitivity.
