Download or read book Your Game Plan to Prevent Type 2 Diabetes written by National Diabetes Education Program and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2012-07-13 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diabetes prevention is proven, possible, and powerful. Studies show that people at high risk for diabetes can prevent or delay the onset of the disease by losing 5 to 7 percent of their weight, if they are overweight—that's 10 to 14 pounds for a 200-pound person. Two keys to success: Get at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity five days a week and eat a variety of foods that are low in fat and reduce the number of calories you eat per day. In other words, you don't have to knock yourself out to prevent diabetes. Have you wondered or possibly been told that you are at risk for developing diabetes or that you have pre-diabetes? To find out more about what things put you at risk, go to page 13 and read the “Are You At-Risk Check List” section. If you haven't already done so, be sure to talk with your health care team about your risk and whether you should be tested.

Download or read book Power to Prevent written by U. S. Department of Health and Human Services and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2012-07-12 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sometimes it seems as if everyone knows someone who is affected by diabetes. More than in 9 African American adults have diabetes. African Americans are .8 times as likely to have diabetes as non-Hispanic whites of the same age . Researchers estimate that if diabetes continues to increase at its current rate, in 3 children born in the year 2000 will develop diabetes in their lifetime—unless something changes. Diabetes can cause heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, lower-limb amputations, and blindness, but it doesn't have to. In many cases it is possible to prevent or delay type 2 diabetes in people at high risk. Scientists who conducted the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) study2 found that people can prevent or delay type 2 diabetes by losing some weight (5–7 percent of their weight), eating a healthy diet (low fat, lower calorie), and increasing their physical activity. High-risk adults who participated in the study's “lifestyle modification” activities reduced their risk of developing type 2 diabetes by 58 percent; they lost 5 to 7 percent of their body weight ( 0– 5 pounds for a person weighing 200 pounds) by eating a lower fat diet and having a modest, consistent increase in physical activity (e.g., walking 5 days per week, 30 minutes per day). Dr. James R. Gavin III, past chair of the National Diabetes Education Program (NDEP) and former president of the American Diabetes Association, understands the burden diabetes has placed on the African American community. “Diabetes is a growing epidemic in our communities,” notes Dr. Gavin. “If we are going to make a difference, we need to reach people where they live, work, and play.” This new NDEP curriculum, Power to Prevent: A Family Lifestyle Approach to Diabetes Prevention was developed to help bring diabetes prevention and control to African American communities. The Power to Prevent curriculum is composed of 2 sessions that are designed to help people bring healthier habits into their lives to prevent diabetes. These same skills—eating more healthily and increasing physical activity— can also help people who have diabetes control the disease. This curriculum is a companion piece to the NDEP Small Steps. Big Rewards. Prevent Type 2 Diabetes campaign to help the African American community take steps to prevent or delay diabetes. Small Steps. Big Rewards includes tip sheets and booklets such as the GAME PLAN toolkit for diabetes prevention. The aim of the Power to Prevent: A Family Lifestyle Approach to Diabetes Prevention curriculum is to guide people in the use of these NDEP tools and to help them support one another in making changes toward a healthier lifestyle. By taking small steps to implement healthy lifestyle behaviors, African Americans can reap big rewards, such as delaying or preventing type 2 diabetes and its complications.

Download or read book The Prediabetes Diet Plan written by Hillary Wright, M.Ed., RDN and published by Ten Speed Press. This book was released on 2013-11-05 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A practical, empowering guide to managing and reversing prediabetes through diet and exercise, from a registered dietitian—now revised and updated for 2024! Affecting 96 million Americans, prediabetes often develops into full-blown type 2 diabetes, one of the leading causes of death in the United States. Increasingly diagnosed by doctors, prediabetes is a condition in which blood sugar levels are elevated, but not yet high enough to be labeled diabetes. While diabetes cannot be cured, prediabetes can be reversed, so it is critical to take action at an early stage. In straightforward, jargon-free language, The Prediabetes Diet Plan explains insulin resistance (the underlying cause of prediabetes and type 2 diabetes) and offers a comprehensive strategy of diet and lifestyle change, which has been proven more effective than medication. With sections on meal planning, grocery shopping, dining out, supplements, and exercise, this book empowers you to make healthier everyday choices that can effect real change on your insulin levels and overall well-being.
