Traveling Can Disrupt Routines

On a lengthy journey, skipping a few time zones throws almost everyone off, but diabetes are particularly concerned. The time change might mess up your medication routine and lead to unusual eating and sleeping patterns that affect your ability to regulate your blood sugar.


Additionally, you could eat more, drink more alcohol, or be more active when on vacation or when traveling, all of which might result in blood sugar swings. You should monitor your blood sugar more regularly when traveling to detect any concerning trends early before they develop into significant problems. Bringing a reusable water bottle and healthy, carb-balanced snacks. Even if it can't be at precisely the same times as you usually eat, try to eat something every four hours throughout the day. Work on a medication plan with your diabetes care team before your trip if you take insulin and will be shifting time zones so that you don't miss any doses.
