Patient's question:
But as one gets older, the small and large illnesses accumulated over the years all broke out at once. I have diabetes. I have seen a doctor and am taking medication, but they are not very effective. I want to find a more effective method. Hello, how is diabetes better treated?Doctor's answer:
The treatment of diabetes mainly includes dietary management, physical activity, oral hypoglycemic drugs, and insulin therapy. Drug treatment requires coordination with dietary and activity management. It is recommended that you strictly control the quality and quantity of your diet, with small portions but high nutritional value, and a variety of food types. It is advisable to balance meat and vegetables in your diet. The recommended order of eating per meal is vegetables, soy products, lean meat, and finally staple foods. Staple foods should be neither too dense nor too liquid, as this may affect fruit intake. If the effect of oral hypoglycemic drugs is not significant, it is recommended that you switch to insulin therapy.
