Diabetes is a chronic condition where the body either cannot produce enough insulin (Type 1) or cannot effectively use the insulin it produces (Type 2). There’s also gestational diabetes, which occurs during pregnancy.
Effective blood sugar management involves regular monitoring, following a balanced diet, staying physically active, taking prescribed medications, and maintaining a healthy weight. Working with a healthcare provider to create a personalized plan is also crucial.
Symptoms of high blood sugar (hyperglycemia) include increased thirst, frequent urination, fatigue, and blurred vision. Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) can cause shakiness, sweating, confusion, dizziness, and fainting.
The frequency of blood sugar checks varies depending on the type of diabetes, your treatment plan, and your healthcare provider’s recommendations. Generally, people with Type 1 diabetes may need to check several times a day, while those with Type 2 may check less frequently.
While Type 1 diabetes cannot be reversed, some people with Type 2 diabetes can achieve remission through significant lifestyle changes, such as weight loss, diet modifications, and increased physical activity. However, this varies by individual.
People with diabetes should focus on a balanced diet rich in whole grains, vegetables, lean proteins, and healthy fats. Foods high in sugar, refined carbohydrates, and saturated fats should be limited. A diabetes-friendly diet can vary, so it's helpful to consult a dietitian.
Poorly managed diabetes can lead to serious complications, including heart disease, kidney damage, nerve damage, eye problems (retinopathy), and an increased risk of stroke and infections.
Yes, exercise is beneficial for managing diabetes. Regular physical activity helps control blood sugar levels, improves heart health, and supports weight management. However, it’s important to monitor blood sugar levels and adjust exercise intensity accordingly, especially for insulin users.
Stress can raise blood sugar levels by triggering the release of stress hormones like cortisol, which can interfere with insulin function. Managing stress through techniques such as deep breathing, meditation, exercise, or talking to a counselor can help keep blood sugar levels more stable and improve overall diabetes management.
Foot care is critical for people with diabetes. To prevent complications, regularly check your feet for blisters, sores, or cuts, keep feet clean and dry, wear appropriate shoes, and control blood sugar levels. It’s also important to schedule regular foot exams with a healthcare provider.
