Today marks World Diabetes Day.
A reminder that countless individuals are managing - or unknowingly moving toward -Type 2 diabetes. For many, it begins quietly, with insulin resistance gradually impacting the body long before symptoms appear.
While medical guidance is essential, thoughtful daily habits can play a valuable role in supporting long-term health.
Start with the essentials:
• Choose whole, nutrient-dense foods and minimise added sugars
• Keep your body active — even short bursts of movement improve insulin response
• Protect your sleep and manage stress, as cortisol affects blood sugar stability
• Test and monitor key markers so you can respond early
Added support to consider (with professional guidance):
• Berberine, magnesium, chromium, ALA, and inositol for glucose balance
• B-vitamins and acetyl-L-carnitine to support nerve health
• Omega-3s, CoQ10, and vitamin D for cardiovascular wellbeing
• Milk thistle and NAC to assist liver function
These supplements aren’t substitutes for prescribed treatment, but they can form part of a thoughtful, holistic approach to managing diabetes. Always consult your healthcare provider before introducing anything new.
On World Diabetes Day, we highlight awareness, prevention, and informed self-care.
