Diabetes management strategies for adults through nutrition education.
A healthy dietary regimen, regular exercise, and often medication are essential elements of diabetic control. The decision of what to eat is frequently the most difficult aspect of the diabetic treatment plan. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) holds that there is no "one-size-fitsall" eating regimen for those who have diabetes. The ADA also acknowledges the critical role that nutrition therapy plays in the overall management of diabetes and has long advocated that each person with diabetes actively participate in self-management, education, and treatment planning with their healthcare provider, including the joint creation of a personalised eating plan.
