Nutrition and Fitness

Nutrition and exercise, along with diabetes medications, are important for good diabetes control. While people with diabetes have the same nutritional needs as anyone else, they have to take extra care to make sure that their food is balanced with insulin and oral medications, and exercise to help manage their blood sugar levels.

A healthy meal plan is one of the most important things you can do to help control your diabetes. Healthy eating means choosing and preparing the right kinds of foods. A registered dietitian can help you to develop a meal plan that works for you. When you make healthy food choices, you can help improve your overall health and might even prevent complications such as heart disease, some cancers, and hypertension.

Exercise, along with a healthy diet and medication, can help you control your diabetes in many ways. If you don't already have an exercise program, now is the time to start! Be sure to consult with your healthcare team before starting an exercise program.

The right information can help you enjoy great food, great fitness, and great diabetes control
