1. For type 1 diabetes
Because the body does not produce insulin itself, patients need to inject insulin regularly but should follow the doctor's instructions.
In addition, a balanced diet, limiting simple sugars and carbohydrates, and maintaining physical activities such as walking and jogging will contribute to effective blood sugar control.
2. For type 2 diabetes
If you already know you have type 2 diabetes, patients need to maintain a healthy diet and exercise regularly. According to experts, just reducing about 5% of your body weight can improve insulin sensitivity.
In addition, patients may be prescribed oral medication to control blood sugar and in some severe cases insulin may be needed.
3. For gestational diabetes
A reasonable diet, rich in fiber from whole grains, green vegetables, fruits combined with appropriate exercise plays an important role in blood sugar control.
Regular blood sugar monitoring throughout pregnancy is necessary, and insulin can be used if the above measures are not effective.
Diabetes is a chronic disease but can be completely controlled if detected early, treated properly and maintaining a scientific lifestyle. Proactively monitoring abnormal signs and performing tests to detect the disease in time is very necessary.
