What to do to control your blood sugar with diabetes

Diabetic patients need to control their blood sugar through diet therapy, exercise therapy, and medication in an integrated way. 1. Dietary treatment. Diabetic patients need to strictly control their diet, calculate the total calories of food intake per day, and avoid excessive calorie intake. While strictly controlling the diet, it is necessary to meet the nutritional needs of the body, reasonably combining the diet, so as to achieve a variety of food. 2. Exercise therapy. Research shows that regular exercise can increase insulin sensitivity, which is conducive to diabetic patients to control blood sugar, and is conducive to obese diabetic patients to lose weight. You can choose swimming, playing Tai Chi, jogging and other suitable sports. 3. Medication. If the blood sugar control is still not up to the standard by controlling the diet and increasing the exercise, you should choose the suitable medication to control the blood sugar under the guidance of the doctor, such as metformin, acarbose, insulin and so on. Diabetic patients should formulate individualized glucose-lowering program under doctor’s guidance and monitor blood glucose regularly.
