Can I lower my blood sugar by drinking more water?
7 Oct, 2024
Answer: While in some cases dehydration can lead to high blood glucose, drinking water will not actively lower your blood glucose levels. It is important to stay hydrated, but when glucose levels are elevated the most effective treatment options are short acting insulin or physical activity. Consult with your medical team to discuss this further.
