Regular monitoring of blood glucose is a great way to measure how well you are managing diabetes.

Here’s who should be checking blood sugar regularly, according to the American Diabetes Association:

* Anyone who takes insulin.

* Pregnant women.

* People with uncontrolled blood sugar.

* Anyone who struggles with low blood sugar, particularly if there are no warning signs.

* Those who develop ketone buildup as a result of high blood sugar.
