Q:How should you manage your diabetes symptoms?

A: If you are diagnosed with diabetes, get serious NOW! Too many people don't realize that it is so important to take care of diabetes from day 1 to prevent and/or delay the complications of diabetes. Most people with diabetes have type 2 diabetes (about 90%). Many people with type 2 diabetes are overweight (at least 80%). Therefore early on the most important thing to do is loose a few pounds. Accomplish this by taking steps to eat healthier.
