Lifestyle modifications for diabetes management.
Nutrition therapy and physical activity can assist persons with diabetes to achieve metabolic goals. Several lifestyle strategies can be used. Monitoring metabolic parameters, including blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin, lipids, blood pressure, and body weight, as well as assessing for quality of life are essential to determine whether treatment goals are being achieved by lifestyle changes. If not, adjustments in the overall management plan need to be made.
