How to control diabetes?

To better understand your medical history (anamnesis), I need the answers to the following questions:

1. When were you diagnosed with diabetes?

2. What medications are you currently taking?

3. Do you regularly monitor your blood sugar levels?

4. What is your type of diabetes (Type 1, Type 2, etc.)?

5. What are your diet and exercise habits?

6. Have you had major fluctuations in your blood sugar lately?

The following recommendations are generally made to control diabetes:

1. Regular Exercise: At least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week is recommended.

2. Healthy Diet: Avoid sugar and refined carbohydrates and adopt a diet rich in whole grains, vegetables, fruits, and protein.

3. Blood Sugar Monitoring: Check your blood sugar levels regularly and try to keep them within the range recommended by your doctor.

4. Medications and Insulin: Take medications and/or insulin as prescribed by your doctor regularly.

5. Stress Management: Try to keep your stress level low; yoga, meditation or breathing exercises may be helpful.

6. Regular Doctor's Check-ups: See your doctor regularly to manage your diabetes.

The steps mentioned above can help you better control your diabetes. However, you should consult your doctor for personalized advice and these recommendations are general and may not apply to your situation.
