Diabetes can be of 2 types: Type 1 and Type 2. If left
untreated it can lead to serious health hazards like heart
attack, stroke, blindness, kidney failure, amputation, nerve
damage or male impotence.
Changing the diet, increasing the level of physical activity
and maintaining a healthy weight are a few simple steps
that will help you manage the disease effectively.
Cut down on the intake of carbohydrates.
Avoid foods containing refined white sugar, sucrose, corn
syrup, high-fructose corn syrup, dextrose, white flour,
enriched flours, and so on.
Reduce the intake of sugar. Avoid ice cream, cakes,
cookies, sweets, desserts, candy bars, etc.
Take a high protein diet.
Use olive oil for cooking instead of butter or vegetable oil.
Don’t skip meals. Eat regular smaller meals upto 6 times
a day.
Drink plenty of water throughout the day and particularly
when you are exercising.
Make sure to have a small snack or glucose pill during
exercise in case there is a drop in your blood sugar.
Diabkil Capsules are a wonderful herbal supplement that
can be taken without any advice.
Start your day with a good breakfast that will help restore
energy throughout the day.
Lose weight through regular exercise.
You can walk for 30mins everyday 5 times a week or try
activities like swimming, biking, etc.
Regular physical activity improves the body’s response
to insulin. Apart from regular exercise try to remain
physically active through light activities such as housework,
gardening, etc.
Wearing a continuous glucose monitor will help you to
record your blood sugar readings and understand how your
blood sugar reacts to particular foods.
Take a well balanced diet comprising of a combination
of starches, fruits and vegetables, proteins, and fats.
Check your blood sugar levels before during and after
exercise especially if you are taking insulin or medications
for reducing blood sugar.
Try to eat at the same time everyday. This will prevent
fluctuating blood glucose levels.
Take insulin and diabetes medications to lower blood sugar
levels and keep diabetes under control.
Include a lot of fiber in your diet.
Smokers are 50% more likely to have this disease than non-
smokers. So it’s better to quit smoking.
Hence we can conclude that the above mentioned dietary
and lifestyle changes will certainly help diabetics to efficiently
control the disease.
