1. Popson Tablet:
• Popson is a multivitamin and antioxidant supplement, often containing amino acids, vitamins, and minerals that support male reproductive health.
• It is not known to directly raise blood
sugar levels. However, some formulations might include sugars or substances that could marginally affect glucose.
2. Evion 400 (
Vitamin E):
• Vitamin E is an antioxidant and does not typically raise blood sugar levels. In fact, it might have a slight protective effect against oxidative stress in
diabetes.
Possible Causes of Blood Sugar Increase:
1. Pre-Diabetes Progression:
• As you were already prediabetic, this could indicate a progression towards diabetes. Weight, BMI, and dietary habits play a critical role in this.
2. Stress or Illness:
• Recent physical or mental stress, infections, or illnesses can elevate blood sugar levels temporarily.
3. Dietary Changes:
• Increased caloric or carbohydrate intake due to changes in your diet could contribute to the spike.
4. Supplement Formulations:
• Check the composition of Popson. If it contains glucose, fructose, or high-carb components, they may cause a transient increase in blood sugar.
H1bA1c Test:
• This test will help confirm whether your blood sugar control has worsened over the last 2–3 months.
Next Steps
1. Medication Review:
• Review the exact ingredients of Popson with your doctor or pharmacist. If any ingredient is questionable, consider alternatives.
2. Lifestyle Modifications:
• Maintain a healthy, low-glycemic diet and increase physical activity to help with weight management and blood
sugar control.
3. Monitor Blood Sugar:
• Regularly check fasting and postprandial glucose levels to track changes.
Once the H1bA1c results are available, share them to evaluate the next steps.
