Are you struggling to shed those extra kilos? Do you experience irritability, fatigue, or mood swings when your meals are delayed? Are you constantly craving sugary or starchy foods? If so, then your blood sugar may need some attention.

This article covers some helpful markers to assess blood sugar health, so that you and your healthcare provider can work together to make informed decisions about your diet and lifestyle for optimal glucose control.
