I personally think there is nothing damaging with 60. Reference this. [biochemistry-glucose-and-your-brain](https://forum.fudiabetes.org/t/biochemistry-glucose-and-your-brain/3813) 40 seems to be the bad number. I think the “below 70” idea is overly-cautious advice, perhaps based on the idea that, “_If we say ‘below 70’, that might prevent people from being below 50…_” The only risk might be if someone spends a lot of time at 60, they would not “feel” it as much, and their built-in personal feelings for a “low warning” would be diminished. I don’t know if that is true, but I have heard that. I still feel lows when I am actually low. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.fudiabetes.org/t/what-would-you-do-nighttime-and-low-bg/4761)._
