Your diabetes prevention plan is all about gradual changes to your lifestyle.
When you think of the more than 21 million Americans that have diabetes and over 5 million dying of heart attacks you wonder why we are not jumping at the chance to save ourselves and love ones.
First I want you to read more details on diabetes here.
Monitoring your high blood pressure levels is also important in protecting you from diabetes mellitus, a particularly damaging affect on your kidneys, and also diabetic retinopathy, the characteristic eye disease in diabetes.
Controlling your blood sugar, blood pressure, blood cholesterol and restricting your consumption of salt, as well as protein should be part of your prevention plan.
