Diabetes Management: Not Just with Medicines, but with Proper Nutrition and Lifestyle – Dietitian Dr. Sarmil Kumar
If your doctor is managing your diabetes without consulting a dietitian, they may be pushing you towards an overload of medications. Research suggests that diabetes medications are a secondary option, while proper nutrition, a balanced diet, and a healthy lifestyle are the first and most crucial measures.
Why Are Diabetes Medications a Secondary Option?
✅ Diabetes is a lifestyle disorder, primarily
caused by poor dietary habits and an unbalanced lifestyle.
✅ If nutrition, diet, and physical activity are properly managed, the need for
medications can be significantly reduced in many cases.
✅ Studies show that adopting the right diet and exercise can naturally regulate
blood sugar levels.
✅ Relying incorrectly on medications can lead to several side effects, such as
kidney damage, weight gain, and increased insulin resistance.
Why Is a Dietitian's Role Important?
💡 A dietitian is a specialist who
understands your dietary and nutritional needs and creates a personalized diet
plan for diabetes management.
💡 A dietitian ensures that your diet contains the right balance of
carbohydrates, proteins, fiber, and healthy fats.
💡 Proper nutrition helps maintain stable blood sugar levels,
potentially reducing the need for medications.
💡 A dietitian helps you focus on natural and wholesome nutrition,
keeping your body healthy and energetic.
What Should You Ask Your Doctor?
If your doctor is managing diabetes solely
through medications, you should directly say:
🗣️ "Doctor, I don't want to rely only on
medicines; I want to control my diabetes from the root. Please refer me to a
dietitian so that I can improve my nutrition and lifestyle to reduce my need
for medications."
Remember, diabetes can be managed not just with medicines but through the right diet and lifestyle changes. Therefore, always ask your doctor for a dietitian’s advice.
