Hi welcome to HCM
I have gone thru your query regarding elevated BSL , It is a matter of concern and is very common problem these days . Do you know why ? Because of our faulty food habits and derailed life style and obesity is outcome and so is diabetes , hyper tension and other diseases .
You have not mentioned your age and how old is your problem ?What alll you are taking in your diet ? You have told you are not taking 'extra sugar ' means still you are taking sugar ? with so high BSl ?
You must keep in mind not to include sugar or sugary products , carbs in your diet .
Constipation is mother of all ills . so be careful .
Our health depends on 'what we eat ,when we eat and how we eat . and our activity level .
Treatment with tablets and insulin is not enough anyway .A strict diet control and regular exercise to control weight is a part of the therapy.

I suggest you to take balanced regular diet .Include all essential nutrients less carbs , more of fiber,protein , vitamins ,minerals in natural form as fruit ,green leafy veges , supplements full of antioxidants - lemon juice ,bitter gourd juice 25 ml , Aloe vera juice +Amla juice , coconut water , turmeric powder with a cup of hot milk + a T spoon almond oil, almonds ,walnut , a few to count , and proper , exercise regular walk yoga ,pranayam - deep breathing will fulfill your requirement of balanced diet ,and overall detoxification of your system .
Last but not the least shun your mental stress , worry ,anger to get sound sleep practice meditation to enhance resistance from diseases and pave way for healthy , happy ,disease free life if above regimen followed regularly .
Hope this helps you solve your query . Take care .All the best
Don't hesitate to come back for further query if any .
