Abstract
Eight subjects ( Ss) with non-insulin-dependent diabetes (NIDDM) monitored their stress, blood glucose (BG), food intake, activity (via pedometer), mood, and coping responses for 8 days. They alternated 2 daily, self-selected ADA food-exchange diets to control for the effects of stress on adherence to diet. BG was significantly higher on high-stress compared to low-stress days. This effect was at least partially mediated by the effect of stress on activity; Ss were significantly less active on high-stress days. Further analyses suggested idiosyncratic relationships between mood and BG, and some evidence was found to suggest a relation between stress, coping, and BG.
