Features: This book collects recent new data on diabetes, references a large number of domestic and international literature and research achievements on diabetes, and incorporates the major clinical diagnostic standards and treatment methods for diabetes, as well as patient management and supervision plans, formulated by the American Diabetes Association in 2004 ("Clinical Practice Recommendations 2004") and the "Chinese Diabetes Prevention and Control Guidelines" in 2004. Combining our clinical prevention and treatment experience, it provides a detailed and specific elaboration on the comprehensive prevention and treatment of diabetes. It also incorporates the latest nutritional classification from FAO and WHO, further clarifying the role of nutrients such as carbohydrates. This book gathers the essence of various sources, briefly introduces the basic knowledge of diabetes, including energy metabolism, appropriate, reference, and recommended intakes of nutrients, providing a basis for formulating rational dietary nutrition for patients. The contribution of this book is the detailed description of the methods and means of quantified dietary therapy and quantified exercise therapy, proposing the new concept of the "Glycemic Index of Food." Different foods have different glycemic indices, and choosing low-glycemic-index foods helps stabilize blood sugar control, providing more scientific techniques and methods for diabetic patients to better manage their diabetes through dietary therapy. Quantified exercise therapy describes in detail the effective exercise dosage required to treat diabetes, changing the previous situation where patients engaged in blind exercise without monitoring or quantification, ensuring that their daily exercise amount meets the effective treatment dose. It establishes a new model for the comprehensive prevention and treatment of diabetes, thereby increasing the achievement rate of diabetes treatment (reaching the treatment standards of the Asia-Pacific region) by 2 to 5 times compared to conventional treatment methods. It introduces the key points of clinical diabetes treatment, implementing "super-intensive" therapy, strictly controlling the "ten highs and one low" in diabetic patients, and delaying the occurrence and development of complications. It also introduces advanced international diagnostic and treatment technologies and standards, as well as specific strategies and methods for the three-level prevention of diabetes, making it a highly practical handbook for the comprehensive prevention and treatment of diabetes.
