Xiao Zhang is a company executive, usually busy with work, the pace of life is tight, eating habits are not very healthy, some time ago Xiao Zhang suddenly found that he often felt dry mouth, heavy drinking, polyuria, sometimes blurred vision, at first he didn't pay much attention, thinking that maybe he was too tired from work recently, but these symptoms lasted for a while and did not get better, Xiao Zhang realized that things may be more serious, and decided to go to the hospital for a check-up.
Xiao Zhang registered to see the endocrinology department, the doctor asked him about his symptoms, measured his fasting blood sugar, and found that it was as high as 12.8mmol/L, and was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.
The doctor prescribed hypoglycemic drugs to Xiao Zhang, telling him to control his diet, eat less foods with high sugar content, and exercise appropriately.
At first, Xiao Zhang felt a little uncomfortable in his body, but gradually he found that his weight was decreasing, and his symptoms such as dry mouth and excessive drinking, blurred vision and other symptoms were also alleviated, and Xiao Zhang's confidence increased greatly, and he felt that he had found the "secret" to controlling diabetes.
But a few months later, Xiao Zhang felt that his body was not quite right, he felt weak, and his mental state was not very good, he came to the hospital again, and a check found that his blood sugar was higher, the doctor carefully inquired about Xiao Zhang's situation, and sighed after learning that he did not eat staple foods at all.
The doctor patiently explained to Xiao Zhang that diabetics also need to eat staple foods, but they should choose grains with low glycemic index, such as oats, quinoa, etc., and the quantity should be controlled.
The doctor formulated a personalized diet plan for Xiao Zhang, suggesting that he should do aerobic exercise appropriately to control stress on the basis of ensuring balanced nutrition, Xiao Zhang adjusted his lifestyle according to the doctor's advice, and to his surprise, in just 3 months, his blood sugar dropped to the normal range, and his physical condition also improved significantly.
Xiao Zhang's experience has given us a lot of inspiration, in the face of disease, blindly listening to home remedies will be counterproductive, even if the medical community recognized that "diabetes should eat less staple food", it must also vary from person to person, everyone's physical condition is different, and the treatment plan should be individualized, not "one size fits all".
In addition, the mentality is also very important, worrying about blood sugar every day, panic, anxiety, but will affect the endocrine, aggravate the condition, maintain an optimistic and cheerful attitude, relax yourself appropriately, help control blood sugar, of course, good living habits are essential, healthy diet, moderate exercise, quit smoking and limit alcohol, is the fundamental way to control diabetes.
Xiao Zhang's case tells us that in the face of disease, we must learn to follow the doctor's advice, do not try home remedies easily, maintain a positive and optimistic attitude, and develop healthy living habits, in order to better control the condition and improve the quality of life.
Here I want to say a few more words, many people think that getting sick is inevitable, especially with age, this idea is actually wrong, we can completely through good lifestyle habits, prevent many chronic diseases, such as diabetes, although there are genetic factors, but poor lifestyle is the main trigger, sedentary, overeating, staying up late, stress, etc., will increase the risk of disease.
On the contrary, if we develop healthy lifestyle habits, diabetes, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, etc., can be effectively prevented, such as eating more vegetables and fruits, and eating less high-sugar and high-fat foods; Keep exercising and getting sleep; Learning to relieve stress, etc., these seemingly simple things are essential for health.
I have such a friend by my side, he used to be the same as Xiao Zhang, busy with work, eating and drinking casually, almost no exercise, the physical examination found that his blood sugar was high, the doctor reminded him to pay attention, he suddenly woke up, made up his mind to change his lifestyle, he insisted on jogging for 40 minutes every day, halved his appetite, ate more coarse grains and vegetables, and then rechecked all the indicators were normal, and what was more gratifying was that he felt lighter and more energetic.
Lifestyle changes, not overnight, requires perseverance and perseverance, at first may not be adaptable, but persevere, you will find that the original health can be controlled, everyone is the first person responsible for their own health, don't wait until you are sick to regret it, from now on, develop healthy living habits, responsible for your own health, but also the greatest love for your family.
