HUYỀN TRANG (NGUỒN mayoclinic.org) |

After Tet, diabetics need to control their blood sugar to prevent complications after a period of uncontrolled eating.

After Tet, when diet is not controlled, diabetics may experience high blood sugar and risk of complications.

Here are some ways to help prevent diabetes complications after a period of uncontrolled eating.

1. Adjust your diet

Choose foods with a low glycemic index. Increase green vegetables, whole grains and low-sugar fruits to maintain stable blood sugar.

Limit sugar and starches. Avoid sweets, candy, sugary drinks, and processed foods.

2. Increase physical activity

Regular exercise, such as walking, cycling or swimming for at least 30 minutes a day, can help improve insulin sensitivity and reduce blood sugar.

3. Monitor blood sugar regularly

Check your blood sugar level daily. You should monitor your blood sugar at least 2-3 times a day to adjust your diet and medication in time.

4. Drink enough water

Stay hydrated by drinking water as water helps remove excess sugar from the body through urine and helps support metabolism.

5. Consult your doctor

Have regular health check-ups after Tet. If your blood sugar is still high or you experience unusual symptoms, see your doctor for examination and treatment adjustment.

These measures will help you protect your health and prevent diabetes complications after Tet.
