As a Blue Circle Voice advocate, I have been living with type 1 diabetes since 2015. Healthy nutrition for diabetes is of particular importance to me. Nutrition is one of the most powerful approaches to preventing and managing diabetes. Publications on nutrition, dietary patterns, insulin sensitivity, metabolism and overall health are readily available. For people with diabetes, eating a healthy diet is essential for controlling blood sugar levels, avoiding complications and improving overall health. There is great interest in reversing insulin resistance through nutrition and supporting long-term health outcomes.
Moreover, dry eye disease, commonly diagnosed in diabetes patients, can be managed by nutrition. As a BCV advocate I want to bring this information to people with diabetes and help them lead healthy lives.
My experience with diabetes and knowledge as a physician inspired me to publish two articles on dietary intervention for blood sugar and dry eye management. In summary, I can state that nutrition has a great potential to manage and enjoy life with diabetes without compromising daily routine.
