Download or read book The Diabetes Self Management Handbook written by Dr Netra Khadka and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2024-03-29 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A silent killer is diabetes, unknown to many of us who live with it. Therefore, we do not take this disease seriously. Only when diabetes complications persist we become concerned and worried. Often, in times of panic, we turn to glamorous products and services that promise quick fixes. Many times, even after investing a lot of money and time, no results are achieved. The truth is that, if we want to help ourselves, we can certainly do so without anyone's assurances or false promises in managing diabetes. Based on this premise, the author in this book uses his academic and research background, the latest information, and his real-life experience to provide knowledge and understanding that will help us effectively manage diabetes. We may find managing diabetes on our own to be a daunting task, but the author gives us useful tips we may not have heard before that can help transform our lives into a happier, healthier, and more fulfilling one. We can also benefit from this book if we have not yet fallen into the diabetes trap, but are at risk for it due to our overweight.
