Diabetes is a chronic condition in which one's body cannot produce the insulin required to serve the food one eats. I have had type-1 for 34 years (since 16). The longer one has it, the more complications can occur. Having eye trouble, kidney disease, loss of one's limbs can occur. Exercise helps reduce these complications, along with proper insulin control which is a blood sugar between 80 and 180. ANYONE WITH A FAMILY MEMBER WITH DIABETES IS AT RISK. Get a blood test if you show symptoms of diabetes or call your doctor for more information. Tips for helping Diabetes include eating properly, exercising after meals, taking care of one's feet (due to amputation concerns) eating properly and light rest at times. ALSO CHECK YOUR VISION AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR. Thanks! JR from the Denbigh House.
I enjoyed reading your post it was very informative I would also mention when you said taking care of one's feet to be sure not to cut your own toenails, but have a podiatrist cut them to ensure it is properly cut and to prevent infection from occurring. Great job J.R.!
