If you have diabetes, you should also focus on having a healthy lifestyle, watch your diet, exercise regularly, as in the last post on diet for hypertension. You want to eat less refined starches, less sugar, less sodas, less fatty foods, less fried foods, more water, more vegetables, more fruit, more high fibre foods. Losing even 5% of your body weight significantly lowers your risk.

If you have diabetes, especially if you are on insulin, love yourself, take care of your health, and invest in a glucometer to measure the glucose in your blood. It will help your doctor if you bring a list of your readings to your visit, we can make sure you are on the right dose of medications. And, if you aren't feeling well, you can check your sugar at home to see if that is what is causing you to feel ill, and go to your doctor for a check up if necessary. If you have not eaten yet for the day your sugar should be between 80 and 126 mg/dl. If you have eaten it should not be more than 160 mg/dl.
Did u exercise yesterday? Remember exercise is one of those magic pills that fights against diabetes, hypertension, cancer and Alzheimer's. Walking is great exercise. If u can't get outside, walk on the spot while u watch tv. Put on some music and dance. Let's get moving!
