Tip of the Day
Did you know that many diabetic complications begin quietly, long before you notice any pain or changes, starting with nerve damage and poor circulation?
Over time, high blood sugar can damage the tiny blood vessels that feed your nerves, reducing oxygen flow and impairing their function. This can affect the eyes, leading to vision changes or even diabetic retinopathy, and it can harm the limbs—especially the feet—by causing numbness, slower healing, and an increased risk of infections. These issues often develop gradually, which is why proactive care, daily monitoring, and regular check-ups are essential. Your health is your journey, take care of the small steps now so they carry you far into the future.
Tip Of The Day
Did you know that stress can increase your glucose levels?
In people with diabetes, stress can cause blood sugar to rise because the body can’t use insulin properly to manage the extra glucose released. Ongoing stress may also lead to unhealthy habits, making blood sugar harder to control. Take steps to lower your stress levels like walking, deep breathing, listening to music, or sleeping if you can.
