Diabetes management is as simple as learning the alphabet. Talk to your doctor about how to manage your HbA1CBlood pressure, and cholesterol. This can help lower your chances of having a heart attack, stroke, or other diabetes problems.

  1. The HbA1C test reflects your blood glucose control over the past 2-3 months.
  2. Work with your blood to have your own personal HbA1C goal.
  3. Every 1% over 6% elevates the risk for diabetes complications.
  4. Your blood glucose will stay lower with exercise and restricted calorie intake.

 

Blood Pressure Below 120/80 for Managing Diabetes
  1. Up to 60% of people with diabetes suffer from High Blood Pressure.
  2. High blood pressure can cause heart attack, stroke and kidney disease.
