Anyone who has Diabetes is familiar with the importance of staying healthy. However, taking some extra measures to further delay or prevent the effects of the disease should not be underestimated.
Maintaining tight control of blood sugar levels is critical for protecting the health of the small blood vessels and circulation in your heart, kidneys, peripheral nerves and eyes. All Diabetic patients should actively work to minimize the risk factors for vascular disease which include controlling their blood pressure, not smoking, reducing dietary fat intake to lower cholesterol and trigycerides and participating in some form of regular exercise.
Always be sure to follow your physicians’ directions and advice. If you have been diagnosed with diabetes or even if you are just glucose intolerant, you should have a thorough diabetic eye examination Drs. Alterman, Modi or Wolter.
