Blood Sugar Test In The Morning: We must have often seen that whenever diabetic patients go to the doctor, they ask them to bring the morning blood sugar test report. Have you ever wondered what is the real reason behind this? Why don't doctors conduct such tests in the afternoon, evening or night? Actually, glucose level increases in the morning which is a regular process in our body. Let us know what happens between late night and early morning that leads to such results.
Such changes occur in the body in the morning
Some hormonal changes take place in our body in the morning. Whether you have diabetes or not, blood sugar level increases. When not suffering from diabetes, the body secretes more insulin to balance many things. If you have diabetes and no matter how strict a diet chart you follow, the sugar level increases between dinner and breakfast, insulin does not work normally in the body of these patients. Growth hormones like epinephrine, glucagon and cortisol released at night strengthen your body's insulin resistance, which is sure to increase the sugar level.
3 big reasons for increasing blood sugar level in the morning
1. You had taken more or less medicine.
2. Lack of adequate amount of insulin in your body before night.
3. You might have eaten some sweet things just before sleeping.

If the blood sugar level increases in your body, then do not be careless at all, because it increases the risk of many diseases like kidney disease and heart attack. Let us know what measures can be taken to control glucose level.
