Type 2 diabetes is a rapidly growing national problem. 100,000 Australians developed diabetes in the past year and type 2 diabetes accounts for around 85% of all diabetes.
Early identification and management of people with type 2 diabetes is very important.
Thirst, lethargy, change in weight and passing urine frequently are some of the common symptoms of diabetes.
Checking your risk for diabetes is simple and quick and can be done with your GP.
If you have any questions or concerns about diabetes or would like to have your risk checked pop by and see me in clinic.
Did you know that type 2 diabetes can be potentially reversed?
When my patients stick to a strict healthy balanced diet and exercise program I’ve seen them naturally lower their sugar levels to a point where some of them no longer require the need for medication.
As you can imagine this is life changing and you can hopefully do the same too. Just always remember to stay on your medications, unless otherwise instructed by your medical practitioner.
For help and advice on how to do this or if you have any questions, feel free to pop by and see me in clinic.
