The new blood sugar standard has been announced, not 3.9~6.1, but this range, maybe your blood sugar is not high
Introduction, with the gradual improvement of living standards, food has become diversified, poor eating habits, coupled with lack of exercise, lead to excess nutrition, which can easily cause a series of other discomforts such as high blood pressure, high blood sugar, and hyperlipidemia!
In clinical medicine, hyperglycemia has become one of today's clinical diseases. The cause is closely related to their own diet. The middle-aged and elderly people aged 55 to 65 are in the high-risk induction stage, and male patients are 3.8% higher than female patients.
Although medical technology has reached a certain level of development, only through long-term drug treatment can a complete cure for hyperglycemia symptoms be found.
01
What does high blood sugar do to the body?
- Sad.
The coronary arteries of the heart mainly supply fresh blood to various tissues and organs of the body. Too high blood sugar will affect the normal blood flow. When the coronary arteries are narrowed, it will cause myocardial infarction and coronary heart disease.
Reminder: Patients with high blood sugar should check the ECG for at least 6 months to detect heart problems in time.
- Damage the brain.
Due to high blood sugar and narrowing of the vascular lumen, cerebral ischemia or cerebral infarction will occur when cerebral blood vessels are narrowed. The risk of cerebrovascular disease in diabetic patients is several times higher than that of normal people.
Patients with unexplained headaches, dizziness, throbbing headaches, etc. should seek medical attention immediately to see if it is related to high blood sugar.
- It hurts the eyes.
Persistent hyperglycemia can cause microvascular disease, cause retinopathy, and easily lead to proliferative retinopathy, resulting in decreased vision or blindness.
- Injury to the kidneys.
Hyperglycemia affects the renal blood vessels, increases the excretion of albumin in the urine, leads to a large amount of albumin in the urine and increases the level of serum creatinine, and eventually leads to renal failure, and patients can only rely on hemodialysis and kidney transplantation to maintain their lives.
Recommendation: Patients with hyperglycemia should regularly review urine albumin, actively control blood sugar and blood pressure, and avoid the development of the disease.
02
The new blood sugar standard has been announced, it is not 3.9~6.1, it is this range, maybe your blood sugar is not high.
Under normal circumstances, the fasting blood glucose value is between 3.9 and 6.1 mmol/l, which belongs to the normal range. However, the blood glucose standard in clinical medicine has already been adjusted again, and the blood glucose standard of different ages is different.
teenager
As long as postprandial blood glucose does not exceed 7.8mmol/l, and the blood glucose level is between 3.9 and 6.1mmol/l, it is normal.
If the fasting blood glucose of adolescents is greater than or equal to 6.1 mmol/l and less than 7 mmol/l, it indicates that the blood sugar is impaired. In order to avoid severe diabetes, it is necessary to stabilize the blood sugar in time.
middle-aged
Postprandial blood sugar should not exceed 11.1mmol/l, and fasting blood sugar should be kept between 6.1mmol/l/l.
elderly
The blood sugar standard of the elderly is not too strict. As long as the fasting blood sugar is between 7.0mmol/l and 9.0mmol/l, and the postprandial blood sugar does not exceed 11mmol/l, it belongs to the normal range. Because of the continuous increase of age, the body's organ functions begin to function. Descending, the blood will become thicker and the blood flow will slow down.
03
How to stabilize blood sugar in life?
(1) Insist on exercising.
For people with high blood sugar, aerobic exercise is a good choice, because during exercise, we not only speed up the running of the body, but also quickly expel toxins from the body.
(2) Diet control.
In terms of diet, the intake of artificial sugar and refined grains should be minimized. The main staple food should be mainly five grains, less oil and less salt, and light, which will help prevent blood sugar from rising.
(3) Get enough sleep.
Regular sleep time also contributes to the regularity of blood sugar, thereby reducing blood sugar fluctuations. It is recommended to ensure about 8 hours of high-quality sleep every day.

Read extension: The dangers of hyperglycemia.
Hazard 1: Loss of electrolytes in the body.
As the urine is excreted in large quantities, the electrolytes in the body are also excreted. Electrolyte imbalance can be caused by hyponatremia or hypernatremia, hyperkalemia, hyperphosphatemia, etc.
Hazard two: causing pancreatic failure.
Pancreatic failure, decreased insulin secretion, worsening of the condition, and long-term hyperglycemia have toxic effects on pancreatic islet cells.
Harm three: damage islet cell function.
The loss of islet cell production and the loss of sensitive state, and even the failure of islet cell function, is due to the increase in blood sugar concentration, which stimulates islet cells to secrete insulin, but is stimulated for a long time, and islet B cells are exposed to high blood sugar for a long time.
Hazard four: no diuretic effect.
High blood sugar increases the kidneys, leading to the formation of urine sugar. The glucose concentration in the renal tubules increases, leading to the formation of hyperosmolar diuretics. The absorption of water by the renal tubules increases and decreases. In urine, it can cause severe dehydration and even coma.
Hazard five: worsening vascular and neurological complications.
Long-term hyperglycemia can cause development and complications of blood vessels and nerves, aggravating the condition.
