November is National Diabetes Month: Let's Take Action Together!
This month is not just a reminder; it’s an opportunity to amplify awareness about the realities of living with diabetes. At BV Medical Solutions in Huntsville, we’re dedicated to empowering those managing type 2 diabetes through our holistic weight loss program designed with your success in mind.
Our program includes doctor-prescribed GLP-1 medications like Semaglutide and Tirzepatide, complemented by innovative tools such as 3D body scans and tailored nutrition guidance. Together, we’ll work towards effective weight management as an integral part of your diabetes care.
Here are essential strategies, inspired by the American Diabetes Association, that can help you thrive in your diabetes journey:
1. Create a Medication Routine: Make your medications an automatic part of your daily life. Use reminders or charts to ensure you never miss a dose.
2. Consult with Your Doctor: Before making any changes to your medication, always have a conversation with your healthcare provider to ensure your health remains the top priority.
3. Embrace Balanced Eating: Optimize your meals using the Diabetes Plate method:
- Fill half your plate with non-starchy vegetables for nutrients and fiber.
- Allocate a quarter for lean proteins to support muscle health.
- Use the final quarter for quality carbohydrates, such as whole grains or fruit, to fuel your body.
4. Stay Active: Incorporate movement into your daily life—aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate activity each week, such as brisk walking or dancing. Every step counts!
5. Monitor Your Blood Glucose: Regularly check your blood glucose levels as advised by your healthcare team. If your levels drop below 70 mg/dL, follow the Rule of 15: consume 15 grams of fast-acting carbs, wait 15 minutes, and recheck your levels for peace of mind.
