The Stress Factor
Tuesday, September 30th, 2008I’m wondering just what the stress factor has to do with glucose numbers. There must be a way I can “test” stressful times against times when I am more relaxed. Trouble is, I am one of the many whose job has been affected by the current economy. So my stress level seems to be consistently high! Glucose readings are higher…not out of sight but higher. My blood pressure is up as well.
Seems like I should be able to control the stress since I am aware of it, right? Doesn’t work that way, at least as far as I can tell. I’m trying to exercise more. Any readers care to comment?
