7 Ways to Lower Your A1C Level

Measure Food Portions

Even a small reduction in portion sizes would make a huge difference in daily calories intake, which subsequently lowers your A1C and blood sugar levels. You can use different tools, such as a food scale, spoons, or measuring cups to determine suitable serving sizes for each meal. This can help you know the exact amount of food and nutrients that you consume every day without worrying about overdoing it. Another simple way is to look at the food labels. All packaged products provide nutritional information about total calories and servings sizes on them. You can check these labels to weigh and measure the portions properly. Otherwise, many online websites also provide similar information. [2]
