According to Dr. Michael Roizen and Dr. Mehmet Oz (yes, “the” Dr. Oz), 98.5% of people with Type 2 Diabetes can reverse this by making life style changes. Our clinicians with Western Health Home Care see newly diagnosed Type 2 Diabetes almost on a daily basis! Our nursing experts help educate them on proper nutrition, staying active and the importance of monitoring their blood-sugar levels. The truth is, living with Type 2 Diabetes doesn’t have to be a life sentence!
You can reverse prediabetes with lifestyle changes: the You Docs is a great, short and sweet article with tips on how you can reverse your Type 2 Diabetes.
If you are someone with Type 2 Diabetes, talk to your doctor to see if you qualify for Home Health and Diabetes Education!
Hello, I just wanted to say thank you for sharing this information on prediabetes, and it is nice to know that this is a condition which can be reversed. However, the cost of diabetes is projected to be quite substantial by 2025, maybe even more than what this country can realistically handle. Now, who knows what answers research will provide over the next decade or so, but we still have many questions to answer. I for one am rather alarmed by the number of people who have prediabetes and yet don’t realize they are at risk.
Thank you for your comments, Stephen! The article you provided us with is an interesting read as well! Diabetes is a serious disease, but with a healthy life style and education, it can possibly be avoided or reversed. This is why Western Health likes to pass on as much information as possible on this subject matter. Please continue to stop by and comment on future blog posts. Cheers!
