Shorter Dinner-To-Bed Time Linked to GERD
In addition to diabetes, I do have GERD (Gastric Reflux Disease). Before my diabetes diagnosis, I was careful not to eat after 6:00 pm and I found that my sympthoms were significanly reduced.
However, now if diabetes, the nuitrionist had me eating before I went to bed and yes, I saw an increase in GERD. In fact, just about everything they want you to do to manage your blood sugar makes GERD worse.
My GERD is best if I only eat three meals a day. Of course, that causes spikes.
I am working hard to avoid eating at night, but these higher blood sugar levels make it harder.
