I got some very shocking news from my medical doctor yesterday and had been privately wondering what else I can do next today. I had picked up a couple healthy cookbooks from the American Diabetic Association. I am pre-diabetic which means I am at high risk for delevoping diabetics. I do not have diabetics yet and I am gonna make some changes to my diet, excersice more and I have been pretty healthy my whole life and to hear that I am pre-diabetic is very shocking news today. What else can I do ?

Follow your doctor's orders.

Proper diet and exercise are probably most important.

Hi Reba,

Yes , there must be something else more that I can do. I am not going to be content with minimum aumont of information when I have heard of and seen Deaf people with diabetics go blind slowly because they did not follow their doctor's instructions. At this point it can be reversed now so I am taking advantage of that opporounity that my doctor is offering to simply reverse diabetics by proper nutrition and excersice, plenty of sleep. I am also trying to research 100% natural alternatives to diabetics and will talk to my doctor about it some more.

Thank you Mookie and at this point in time, it can be reversed if I follow the doctor's orders.
 
i agree with reba heath

both side of my family are diabetics
so we are careful what we eats and etc...

so just follow the doctor order i am pre diabete myself too cuz of both side of the family and also family history
 
Diabetics isn't fun..
Have to keep eye health come first..

I might have one in the future... by genes family while turns mid 40'ish!

Sorry Heath! Hopefully you'll be okay and as long keep track your health foods..
Don't make you feel bad about diabetic..

You can use look up the internet google and to see anything good health foods... would be great benefits for you.
 
I'm pre-diabetic also; in most cases, it doesn't mean alot right at this moment, but it's a sign that you need to make some changes or it may turn into diabetes in the future. I have no way of knowing, but if you're carrying around a few extra pounds the doctor will probably recommend losing weight; in a lot of cases that will clear up the condition and nothing more needs to be done. Pre-diabetic just means that your body can still process sugars/starches (so it's not diabetes), but it doesn't do it as well as it should. Cutting back on highly refined carbs (white bread, potatoes, white rice, sweets and other sugars) is also usually recommended. A low-carb diet, such as the currently popular South Beach Diet, seems to work well.

Good luck!

Yeah ? Thanks DeafinTx, My doctor recommended eating Weight Watchers and lose 100 lbs and cooking food from the American Diabetic Association cookbook and I got one more book from the library to take it a step further. Let me be right back with the book from Barnes and Nobles that is done by blood type for pre-diabetics, Type I and Type II diabetics.

Worry free and No Stress

If you can stop your anger and your waste of breath against gays and blacks, you will live longer.

You clearly are not reading what I said ...... I said I do not hate gays blacks etc.

I just hate what they are trying to do to destroy America with the liberal establishment so that has been thrown out of the window. I am not angry or stressful like what you think. You sure have a very imaginative mind and give your mind a rest or you will get brain cancer. How silly is that ?

Brain cancer from worrying about me and the Right Wing Establishment who wants to restore America to its rightful state where we used to obey God and were blessed by God for over 200 years meanwhile you are illegally disobeying God and harming a nation which has been really blessed by God. :whistle:

p.s. this is :topic:

Yes SherryCherish, I am listening to my doctor's orders and following up on this. He said soda is the worst because it can cause you to go blind as has been seen in the doucementary film " Supersize me ". He said to stay away from processed foods and stick with lean meat, fresh vegetables and fruits. I am taking it one step further by ordering the food organic ( no chemicals added in the fruits and vegetables and organic meat )

SherryCherish, Please check out this website about organic foods.
