Losing weight can have amazing benefits for diabetics. For one, weight loss can make it possible for them to take less medication. Also, it can help to manage or even prevent some of the health problems associated with diabetes. More directly, weight loss could even restore blood sugar to a normal, healthy level, which would actually cure the condition. Even if weight loss doesn’t accomplish this for a diabetic person, it can lessen the need for insulin therapy or other diabetes medications, as well as lessen the risk of other serious complications of diabetes, such as heart problems, kidney disease, and nerve damage.

People with a family history of diabetes will also benefit a great deal from weight control. In fact, it can be critical. Staying at a healthy weight reduces their chances of getting type 2 diabetes by 70 to 90%.

This kind of weight-loss plan is one that’s customized for diabetic patients, exclusively. It’s a type of medically supervised weight-loss plan, which is supported and monitored by a medical professional. This makes the weight loss much safer and more effective for the patient than unsupervised weight loss. This is actually a proven fact about medically supervised weight-loss plans.

It’s also true that these plans factor in the many needs of an individual patient, including metabolism, lifestyle needs, and chronic conditions like diabetes. For example, a diabetic patient could have his or her blood glucose level monitored during a weight-loss plan. The patient could have his or her cardiovascular health monitored too. Because diabetics have many particular needs, it is vital for a weight-loss treatment to take them into account.

At Metabolic Medical Centers, our diabetic weight-loss plan is a medically supervised weight-loss plan that’s especially suited for diabetics. It can include the following:
