  1. Panther4Life - If your blood sugar is 99 mg/dl, this is a normal, non-diabetic level and you do not need to worry about lowering it to less than 85 mg/dl.

  7. Ashok Maharana - 8 Cheap Ways to Lower Your Blood Sugar

    1. Exercise
    Losing weight is, frankly, the answer to a lot of health problems. In the case of diabetics, losing weight will require less medication to manage your diabetes, which is helpful in the long run. But there are also short-term benefits to exercising — it lowers your blood sugar, often within minutes. Now, the results of this can depend on the medication that you take, but many diabetics find that if they have high blood sugar, a brisk 20 minute walk can lower their sugar. I've lowered mine by up to 40 points with just a half hour of walking.

    2. Take Diabetic Vitamins
    Nature Made produces a diabetic vitamin pack that I take once or twice a day. The main ingredient that lowers my blood sugar is chromium. Back when I was first diagnosed, I was able to combine chromium supplements with exercise, and I stopped needing medication altogether. Then I got lazy and chubby. I recommend buying these vitamins at Costco, where you get double the amount at half the price.

    3. Drink Unsweetened Green Tea
    You may or may not know how I feel about green tea already. One cup of green tea often lowers my blood sugar levels as much as 30 points. Regular black tea is also effective, and white tea helps, too. Green tea supplements also have a positive effect on blood sugar levels.

    4. Drink Decaf Coffee
    Caffeine can have a detrimental effect on blood sugar levels, but some other compound in coffee seems to lower blood sugar levels. A cup of plain decaf coffee (you can add some cream, but no sugar!) may have a positive effect on your blood glucose levels.

    5. Eat Some Cinnamon
    Cinnamon has been shown to reduce blood sugars, although not effectively in post-menopausal women. Sprinkle a couple teaspoons of cinnamon powder on your yogurt, or take it in capsule form (again, Costco). It should be noted that devouring a huge cinnamon roll everyday will probably not reduce your blood sugar levels.

    6. Have a Glass of Red Wine
    When your liver has to work process the alcohol in your system, it will be too busy to release glucagon into your bloodstream. One glass of red wine with dinner can help to lower your blood sugar. Do be careful, though. I've had more than one blood sugar crash after miscalculating how much medication I would need when I enjoyed a plate of pasta with a glass of Merlot.

    7. Breathe Deep, Relax
    Stressful situations can release hormones that will raise you blood sugar (PDF). If you are feeling anxious, have a cup of chamomile tea, take a slow, relaxing walk, and breathe deeply. Or go sit in your car and scream until you feel better. Whatever works for you.

    8. Sleep Well
    This is totally anecdotal, but I just learned this from a family member: sleep apnea may be the cause of elevated blood sugar in the morning. It turns out that a member of my family is experiencing high blood glucose in the morning, even before eating. A doctor has suggested that sleep apnea, and the lack of oxygen associated with that condition, may be a factor. If you snore so much that your bedmate wants to smother you with a pillow, you might want to have that looked at. See your doctor.
