• Alcohol

  Can lower glucose hours after drinking, especially overnight.

• Illness or Digestive Issues

  Vomiting, diarrhoea, or poor appetite can make you take in less food or fluids than usual. This can lower blood glucose and also make it harder to manage your diabetes during sickness.

• Increased Insulin Sensitivy

  After weight loss, improved fitness, or changes in routine, your body may use insulin more effectively. This means the same dose of insulin or medication could lower your blood glucose more than before.
