Do you know why your Morning Blood Sugar Level
is High?
  • As every diabetic knows, diet and exercise are
    critical in controlling unruly blood sugar levels
    (BSL), And as many have experienced, a proper
    regimen usually leads to drops in BSL.
  • But, often, while postprandial readings often
    come down to less than 140, morning fasting sugar
    levels remain stubbornly high.
  • Doctors call this the dawn phenomenon, probably
    because it usually occurs at dawnbetween 2 am
    and 7 Am. It is important to note that the dawn
    phenomenon is not restricted to diabetics. It
    happens to all of us.

Where does the extra glucose come from?
  • The body carries about 120 teaspoons of glucose
    (600 grams) in the liver and pancreas and just
    one teaspoons worth in the bloodstream.
  • So the addition of even half a teaspoon into the
    bloodstream can raise BSL by 50 points.
  • Around about dawn, In anticipation of the
    activity to come and the energy that will be
    required, glucose is released into the
    bloodstream.
  • This release is triggered by four hormones whose
    effect runs counter to insulin.

The Hormone Factor
  • While you sleep, your blood sugar slowly drops
    until it reaches its lowest point, by around 4 -
    5 am. About this same time, four hormones in your
    body start to function. The chief of these is
    Cortisol, often described as the stress
    hormone.
  • It is accompanied by Growth Hormone, which is
    responsible for repair and regeneration in the
    body Adrenaline, aka the fight-or-flight
    hormone and Glucagon, whose primary job is to
    trigger a release of glucose from the liver into
    the bloodstream.
