How to know what meals do sugar go up?

Hello everyone,

I am not diabetic, but I'm going to buy a glucometer to control the sugar.

If I have overweight and that's why I want to do it.

And I would like to know how you control the food you can eat.

That is, eating "x" food, waiting for 2 hours and analyzing with the glucometer, to see if you are high glucose, which would indicate that this meal raises sugar.

Something like that is how you do?

Yes, yes at two hours you are above 140, you will have to eat fewer hydrates.

Thanks Regina for answering.
I am taking away from hydrates and eating more vegetables.
What I want to do, is to know what foods they feel good or those I can't eat

Give a look at this table.-

What rises faster is usually refined flours and all its derivatives (bread, pasta ...), sweets of course (combine flour refined with sugar), any food with added sugar, rice (the integral rises a little less butIt has a lot of hydrate like white so it also goes up even more) and potato.Whole wheat flours and their derivatives have a lot of hydrate but it rises slower than in the refined version.But with these we have to be careful because many times they sell us things as integrals that are not.It is important to look very well the label and put integral flour, if not the specific thing is that it is refined.Then there are the legumes and fruits that have hydrates but usually quite slow, especially legumes as well as very healthy.Vegetables also have some hydrates but very little so that they barely raise glucose and how they have a lot of fiber the possible rise is very slow.And also the nuts have a small amount of hydrate but it raises the glucose and very slow for the fat they carry.When mixing foods with hydrates with others with fiber and/or fat the hydrates rise the slowest glucose.
You can also consult some nutritionist from your city to teach you to eat healthy and get your goal in a personalized way based on your tastes and personal situation.

I forgot as a general advice trying to base your diet on fresh foods such as vegetables, fruits, legumes, fresh meats and fish, eggs, nuts ... and avoids ultraprocessed foods such as pastries, cookies, food with refined flours, processed meats,Foods with added sugar ... You will see that with certain changes in your low weight and you find yourself better and thus reduce the risk of certain diseases such as diabetes.

Great that sigsauer table, thank you very much!

And thanks too Yesssica_a, .. everything is for preventing diabetes, of course!

Well, I think there are healthy foods, which can upload sugar more than others.
All bodies are not the same, that's why I want it, ... I control it more!
