@soulsings

I avoid added sugar and foods which raise the blood sugar too much. Something I find helpful too is to do a glucose lowering exercise after eating like this one https://youtu.be/hrgR578Rcyk?si=KsyFo7sMtJurkv_r. I've seen a number of people who had their toes removed due to diabetes or have other issues so I try to be do prevention as much as I can.
