Nice Guidelines : Type 2 diabetes in adults: management

[Mephistophlillie]

I'm not the kind of person that just 'accepts' what my Healthcare Pro's suggest, and question why/what/how when things have been suggested to me in the past. I intend to carry on this approach after my diagnosis last year. As such, I've found the following a very interesting read, and useful so I know what to expect in the management of my condition from here on out.

You may or may not find this useful. Forewarned is forearmed, with my second HbA1c coming up in March. 🙂

(Apologies if this has been posted before)

Thanks for posting @Mephistophlillie - NICE bits have been posted/linked before but I have not come across this - and like you want to find out all I can and do all I can, being armed with research and information is worth it.
Good luck with your next HbA1c - we have them around the same time. 😱

If you want to go further, for many things there's no particular reason to restrict yrself to UK guidance. Like it or not, the US often leads (more money!) and it can be worth looking into guidance coming out of US orgs.

In particular, I think the American Diabetes Association's recently updated dietary guidelines are pretty good: https://www.diabetes.org/blog/what-can-i-eat
