While there is no cure yet, the primary goal in treating diabetes is to control
blood sugar levels through diet, exercise, education and medication if needed. Large scale studies have repeatedly
shown that good control of diabetes can prevent or reduce complications associated with Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes.
Education by a diabetes management expert is considered key for the well-being of people with diabetes. If a person
has diabetes, they should receive education to learn how to best manage their condition. This is important for
both their health and their quality of life. Some of the many issues that a diabetes educator can help with are:
Blood Testing, Medication, Meal Planning, Exercise, Stress Management, Pregnancy, Travel, and Preventing Complications. |
