About Diabetes Prevention

 

The most common form of Diabetes is type 2 and it can be effectively prevented with the help of lifestyle changes. Many people in their late 30s and early 40s are diagnosed with high blood sugar that doesn’t necessarily hit the clinical diabetes diagnosis threshold. This is also referred to be prediabetes. High blood sugar in the long-term can affect your nerves, kidneys, and heart. Making just a few simple changes to your lifestyle and regular monitoring can go a long way. 

There are a lot of strategies adopted by us to prevent diabetes in adults based on their diagnosis.

Primordial prevention

This involves simple strategies when the glucose tolerance is normal. This will essentially prevent the emergence of any risk factors in the near future. This can be highly beneficial to adults in their mid-to-late thirties. 

Primary prevention

Primary prevention strategies are implemented when the person is diagnosed to be in “prediabetes” stage. Our consultation and prescription of lifestyle changes can help prevent the onset of diabetes.

Secondary prevention

If a person has already developed diabetes mellitus, any further complications from the disease can be prevented with Secondary prevention techniques. This can be achieved by maintaining good blood sugar levels, Blood pressure, Lipid levels, and supportive anti-hyperglycemic medicines.

Tertiary Prevention

Patients who suffer from end stage complication can benefit from Tertiary prevention methodologies. Here, rehabilitation measures, medicines, lifestyle changes can be implemented. The concept of diabetes prevention is to not get into Secondary and Tertiary prevention stages as long as possible and lead a healthy life.
