Diabetes Management
What is diabetes management?
Diabetes management is about how lifestyle, daily routine and technology can affect blood glucose levels of someone with type 2 diabetes. Keeping blood glucose levels in range improves the health of someone with diabetes and prevents long-term complications or short-term risks that come with blood sugars out of range.
Diabetes can affect every part of the body and blood sugar control is dependent on many varying factors such as environment, stress and hormones. No one formula works for everyone and so through trial and error, along with the application of new technology, those with type 2 can have improved diabetes management.
