Diabetes Q&A
Hi Everyone!
I've found many people with diabetes are confused about what an A1c test is (hemoglobin A1c). The A1c test reveals average blood sugar levels over the past 2-3 months. High blood sugar is correlated with diabetes complications.
The American Diabetes Association (ADA) now recommends that the A1c be used for diagnosing diabetes and pre-diabetes. Under the ADA's new recommendations, an A1c of 6.5% or above indicates diabetes while an A1c of 5.7% - 6.4% indicates pre-diabetes.
For those with diabetes, the ADA recommends an A1c goal of less than 7%. The American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists recommends an A1c goal for those with diabetes of less than 6.5%.

Testimonials from GlucoMenu® Customers
I went online and found your program. WOW, I am so impressed with how you have "put it all together".
I started on your breakfasts menu Friday morning and shopped with your shopping list Friday. What a manageable program.
After being on the GlucoMenu® program for 6 weeks I have seen my
triglycerides go from 335 down to 296. Also my A1C went from 7.8 to 7.3.
My doctor gave me the okay to continue with the GlucoMenu® program and she
loves the fact the menus are created by a dietician. I know I will see
further improvements in my numbers by sticking with GlucoMenu® Thank you
for the great program.
I just wanted to let you know how impressed I am with this diet. I have
lost 17lbs in 6 weeks and all my doctor could say is WOW. We are still not
quite sure if I have diabetes yet, but I intend to stay on this diet for a
long while. It is worth the money.
I tried your diet for type 2 diabetes for one month. My doctor was
thrilled with my blood sugar numbers (I kept a list) I had also lost 5 lbs in 18 days!
I have just signed up for the one year plan. For those who
worry, the menus are very easy and don’t call for a lot of unusual
ingredients. Now I feel like I can live a normal life again.
My doctor said that as long as I stick to the menu I can go from checking my blood sugar 4 times a day to once a week!
Thanks GlucoMenu® employees and creators!
I haven't eaten this healthy in years! With GlucoMenu®, I've been like a kid in a candy store every day! It's a real
treat to have each meal all planned out in advance for me to simply put together. I never go away from the table hungry,
yet the pounds are dropping off and I feel more energetic than I've been in a long time.
And that's giving me the ambition to go out there and get walking as well! (Thanks to you, I'm
reinventing myself!)... You have my utmost compliments for doing a marvelous job - and my heartfelt thanks for giving me
the confidence that I can be assured I'm doing myself good every time I sit down to eat one of your meals. I could never have accomplished
this on my own and I am truly grateful!
Upon finding out that I have adult onset diabetes, my dietician recommended GlucoMenu® She said I
should try to follow the menu plan as close as possible. I'm trying. To
start out, though, that is a lot of food to eat in a day. (My dietician
laughed when I told her that, too.) But, it's nice to have soooo many
choices. I will definately be using GlucoMenu® to the maximum!
