Grandma's Blood Sugar: Less Checking Needed!

For older people with diabetes, checking blood sugar super closely might not always be the best.

Sometimes, focusing too much on low numbers can make them feel shaky and unwell, even a little scared.

Doctors now think it's better for some older people to keep their blood sugar a little higher to avoid these scary times.

This helps keep them safe from falls and other problems that can come from blood sugar getting too low.
