Many people living with Type 2 diabetes find themselves juggling blood glucose levels, medications, diet, lifestyle changes and the emotional impact of managing a chronic condition.
At Advanced Diabetes Management, Irene believes you don’t have to simply manage Type 2 diabetes, you can live well with it. Irene helps you to optimise glucose control, improve overall management and prevent complications, with the aim (where possible) of moving towards diabetes remission.
If you are using insulin, chat with Irene to find out about the benefits of Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) and the use of insulin pumps in Type 2 Diabetes.
Type 2 diabetes involves insulin resistance, changes in metabolism and often multiple health factors (weight, lifestyle, comorbid conditions). The earlier and more thoroughly you engage with structured, evidence-based support, the greater your chance of long-term control, fewer complications, and improved quality of life.
According to the International Diabetes Federation (IDF), the foundation of Type 2 diabetes management is a balanced diet, increased physical activity, maintaining a healthy body weight and managing health-interfering behaviours like smoking.
