Do you really think that you do not have to worry about your blood sugar if you are diabetes free? Well, you really need to re-think your decision. There is a new research that suggests that your blood sugar levels might possibly shorten your life, even though you aren’t diagnosed with diabetes.

The researchers carried out a new study by measuring the A1c levels in people. Such a level is an indicator of the total sugar level in the blood over the period of two to three months. These levels were compared in those with diabetes and the ones without diabetes. The risk of non-diabetes deaths has increased to over 16%.

It is likely that quite a few people in the study were not diagnosed of diabetes at the time when the A1c was initially measured. On the other hand, the studies also suggest that a healthy blood sugar level is important to everyone and not just those with diabetes.  You can control your blood sugar level by some of the few tips mentioned below:

• Regular exercises,
• Controlling the weight,
• Consuming a balanced diet,
• Living a stress-free life.
