How can a nutritionist help with diabetes?
A dietitian can help with diabetes by providing education around the role of nutrition in managing the symptoms, creating individualized meal plans by providing practical strategies for making nutritious yet fun food choices, working on carbohydrate management and blood sugar monitoring.
What is the best treatment for diabetes?
Some treatment modalities include lifestyle changes such as consuming a balanced diet, regular physical activity, weight management, insulin therapy, oral medications, and ongoing education and collaboration with a team of professionals knowledgeable in diabetes management including a dietitian.
Is diabetes curable or treatable?
Currently, there is no known treatment for diabetes, however proper lifestyle and management modifications make it possible to live a healthy and fulfilling life with diabetes.
Does Medicare cover nutrition counseling for diabetes? Does insurance cover nutrition counseling?
Medicare does cover nutrition counseling for diabetes, however we do not take Medicare in our practice. Most insurance plans cover visits with a dietitian for diabetes management, however each plan is different in regards to coverage for sessions, copays, deductibles etc,. We recommended using this form to check your benefits to understand your plans coverage.
