Diabetes

Diabetes treatment methods differ according to the type of disease. In Type 1, medical nutrition therapy should be applied with insulin therapy. The patient's diet is planned by the dietician according to the physician's recommended dose of insulin and the plan. With the application of carbohydrate counting, where the amount of carbohydrate contained in foods can be adjusted, the life of individuals with Type 1 diabetes can be greatly simplified.

In individuals with type 2 diabetes, treatment involves the use of oral antidiabetic drugs to increase the sensitivity of the cells to insulin hormone or to increase the release of insulin hormone directly, as well as providing nutritional support.
