Where I Can Help
Diabetes
No matter the type of diabetes, or near-diabetic diagnosis, it can be a daunting and difficult condition to manage. The right education can make all the difference to help you manage your blood sugar, your way.
​
As with all diets, there is no one perfect diet you need to follow for diabetes- I will not force you to overhaul your life. I can help by working with you and teaching you where tweaking your diet and habits can be all you need.​
​
Whether you have received a new diagnosis or you have been diabetic for a while and are having difficulties I can help. I will tailor my advice to your experience, lifestyle and preferences.
​
Some examples of ways I can help are:
-
Explaining what insulin is and how to manage your diet in relation to its use and production of insulin
-
Explaining which food and drinks affect your blood sugars
-
Teaching you the Glycemic Index of foods, what that means and whether it’s actually important for you
-
Discussing how to manage hypo- and hyperglycemia and developing strategies to avoid these
-
Explaining how to stabilise your blood sugar and avoid spikes
-
Discussing the latest information on supplements and diets in managing your condition
-
Investigating the timing of your meals and snacks throughout the day- you may not be eating enough!
