Do you suffer from type 2 diabetes? Are you insulin dependent or heading that way? The thought of being dependent upon diabetes medication for the rest of your life probably doesn't sound like a good one. Luckily, however, many cases of type 2 diabetes can be managed and controlled just by simply changing your diet and adding regular exercise to your life. So how can diet and exercise affect diabetes and why should you be thinking about the food you eat, even if you're on insulin at the moment?
Diet is very important when it comes to controlling diabetes. For starters, obesity is an important risk factor in contracting type 2 diabetes to begin with so controlling your weight and maintaining a healthy weight might help reduce your risk of getting diabetes if you don't already have it. If you do already suffer from type 2 diabetes, however, then dietary changes can help you manage your medical condition by offering health benefits that extend beyond managing your blood sugar levels.
