💥PREVENTING CARDIOVASCULAR COMPLICATIONS IN DIABETIC PATIENTS
⚡What should be done to prevent cardiovascular complications in diabetic patients? Scientists recommend that patients need to be detected early and treated for risk factors of cardiovascular disease, including:
🎗 Need to control blood sugar, depending on age and associated pathology. In general, it is necessary to ensure that the blood sugar level when fasting is ≤7.0-7.5 mmol/l, after 2 hours of eating ≤ 10 mmol/l and HbA1C ≤6.5-7%.
🎗 This is the most important issue, if blood sugar is not well controlled, it will not be possible to control the complications of diabetes.
🎗 Need to control blood pressure and blood lipids well.
🎗 Need to change the diet, lose weight, prevent obesity.
🎗 Have a healthy and moderate diet: reduce salt, starch, fat, protein, increase green vegetables and fresh foods,…
🎗 Control stress, get enough sleep: Hormones released when stressed increase blood pressure and make it difficult to control blood sugar.
🎗 Need to limit alcohol and to***co, reduce and quit smoking.
🎗 Increase physical activity, preferably exercise for at least 30 minutes a day and at least 5 days a week. The way of exercising depends on each specific individual, it is necessary to sweat.
🎗 Use a diary, notebook or chart to monitor blood pressure and blood sugar levels, if the level is abnormally high, contact your doctor immediately.
🎗 In addition, patients also need to be communicated to understand the early symptoms of cardiovascular complications and see a doctor in time when there are any suspicious symptoms related to cardiovascular complications.
🎗 Regular check-ups play a very important role in screening, detecting and treating early cardiovascular complications.
