General Health Tips for Diabetes
1. Eat Balanced, Low-Glycemic Meals
Focus on whole grains, vegetables, lean proteins, and healthy fats.
Avoid refined sugars and processed carbs that spike blood sugar quickly.
2. Stay Active
Aim for 30 minutes of moderate exercise (like brisk walking) at least 5 days a week.
Exercise helps improve insulin sensitivity and control weight.
3. Monitor Blood Sugar Regularly
Keep a record of your fasting and post-meal glucose.
Adjust meals and medication based on your readings (under professional guidance).
4. Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water—dehydration can increase blood sugar levels.
5. Take Medication as Prescribed
Do not skip or alter doses without medical advice.
Follow up regularly with your healthcare provider.
