Diabetes and You

Diabetes and You is a program designed for anyone facing this condition. It has been developed to teach people how to control this disease. Each section offers different insights about managing this chronic metabolic disorder.
  • If followed in sequence, the program offers a step-by-step progression of diabetes and its management.
  • However, if you have a specific area of interest, feel free to move around by using the menu on the left.
  • After choosing an area, it's most helpful to review the information by taking the quiz at the end of that section.
  • Cool Tools are printable charts and logs that will help you keep track of daily readings.
  • Consult the dictionary any time you would like to gain a better understanding of a term.

    The most important member of your management team is YOU!!! It is up to you to learn as much as you can about your diabetes.

    Controling your blood sugar is a daily challenge, but learning how to manage it will give you the confidence to be successful. You can choose to work on changing eating habits, increasing exercise or both. This is important for decreasing your overall medication or insulin needs. If you are currently controlling your diabetes through diet and exercise alone, the longer you may be able to avoid taking medications to control your blood glucose levels.
