Managing and Treating Diabetes
�While there’s no cure for diabetes, effective treatment can keep blood sugar in a healthy range and prevent complications. Treatment plans are individualized but often include:�• Healthy eating: Focus on whole foods, lean proteins, fiber, and limiting added sugars and refined carbs. 🥦🍎�• Regular physical activity: Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise each week to improve insulin sensitivity. 🏃♀️�• Medications or insulin therapy: Some people may need oral medications, non-insulin injectables, or insulin to manage blood sugar levels. 💉�• Routine monitoring: Checking blood glucose regularly helps track progress and guide adjustments. 📊�• Lifestyle support: Managing stress, getting quality sleep, and regular follow-ups with healthcare providers are key parts of care. 🌿
With consistent management, people with diabetes can live long, healthy, and active lives. Education, support, and small daily choices truly make a difference. 💙
