It's KILLING Me!!! Diabetic / Blood Sugar , I need sweetner free liquid? - Page 5 - e-cigarette-forum.com • The place for electronic cigarette reviews, news and chat

I posted in this thread a while back. I vape 11mg to 0nic liquid and have had no increase in my sugar testing from vaping. None. I vape most at night while on the computer and I test at 11pm, I am under 150 every night. This has been my normal pattern for almost 6 months. If I was doing something wrong, my 2 or 3 testing a day would show it. The only changes are when I "cheat" with my food intake. My Dr. is thrilled. I am happy she's happy and off my back! My B.P. which has been very high..is now in the low normal range.
I don't know about Nic being so bad for you as a diabetic but since I do vape low amounts I am not worried.
I meant to add that I vape P.G. with about 10 drops of glycerin per 10ml's. I have even tried Glycerin thinned down with distilled water and Lorann's..no difference in blood sugar.
Check Wiki for P.G. and V.G...it states that it will not raise blood sugar.
I am on Insulin and am a type II diabetic.

well I'm a type 1 diabetic and have seen no changes in my numbers since vaping...

I am not diabetic but looking at the numbers it would seem to me that the average vaper would not experience much of a problem with the sugar content of the juice. If the juice where 100% sugar which of course it is not the amount consumed per day would be less than a tablespoon. Even at 1/10 concentration which again I doubt the total intake would be less than 1/10th of a teaspoon. 1 tsp is 5 ml and on a heavy vape day I may go through
3 ml of juice so even assuming a 10% concentration I doubt the total sugar dose to be more than a few grams per day.

I had elevated blood sugar levels before I started vaping. It's gone down 70 points with medication, exercise and a better diet.

ALL of my doctors know I smoke an e-cig and not one of them has ever said anything.

If you want to do a proper test, stop vaping for the 12 hours that you're supposed to be fasting before your doctor does a blood test.

Unfortunately, some people just have high blood sugar levels.

The only thing that raises my blood sugar is a few wobbly pops before supper (well maybe more than a few), or if I eat food groups from the MAD or SAD diet (Modern or Standard American Diet). If you change your eating habits to a more vegan or absolutely vegan your blood sugar should really improve. Best strategy yet for me has been the 30 Diabetes Miracle and the 30 Day Diabetes Miracle Cookbook. I dropped 30 lbs in a couple of months, normal blood sugars and my doctor says she thought I had Type II but everything is normal now. The food is good and gives you more energy plus lowers BS levels substantialy. Books are not expensive at amazon.com
