Diabetes is a growing global health concern. The disease affects millions of people and could lead to severe complications if not managed effectively. The good news is that there are several measures that one can take to enhance their health and lower their risk of contracting diabetes, such as maintaining a healthy weight and avoiding an excessively sedentary lifestyle.


Getting Proper Nutrients
A key component for preventing diabetes is a healthy diet that not only helps you to maintain a healthy weight but also ensure that you get the nutrients that your body needs. A diet with low carbohydrate and sugar intake and high fibre intake can help.

Additionally, personalised supplements are a great way to ensure that you are able to fulfil any nutritional gaps that might occur in your diet. Unlike one-size-fits-all solutions, personalised supplements are tailored to your specific needs, taking into consideration your current health conditions, blood sugar levels and specific health goals,

Here are some ways how personalised supplements can help you manage the disease.  

1. Nutritional Support: Certain vitamins and minerals play an important role in supporting insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism. Personalised supplements can ensure that individuals receive the right doses of these nutrients.
2. Balancing Blood Sugar: By incorporating ingredients that have demonstrated potential in stabilising blood sugar levels into a personalised supplement regimen, individuals can better regulate their glucose levels.
3. Improving Overall Health: Tailored supplements can also address other health concerns, such as inflammation and oxidative stress, which are often linked to diabetes complications. 

Enhancing Blood Health
Diabetes can exacerbate blood glucose levels, which can lead to cardiovascular disease, among others. External counterpulsation (ECP) therapy is a non-invasive treatment that can help reduce this risk. It also has a positive effect on glycemia control by increasing glucose tolerance and glycemic control.

ECP works by inflating and deflating cuffs that are placed around the lower body in sync with the heartbeat to promote better blood flow. This can enhance blood circulation and improve overall cardiovascular health.

Some other benefits of ECP for diabetes patients include: 

1. Improved Circulation: Poor circulation is often an issue with diabetes patients. By enhancing blood flow, ECP helps to deliver essential nutrients and oxygen to tissues, promoting healing and reducing the risk of some forms of complications.
2. Blood Pressure Regulation: High blood pressure is a common comorbidity when it comes to diabetes. It has been demonstrated that ECP can lower blood pressure, which is important for reducing cardiovascular risks associated with diabetes.
3. Stress Reduction: Stress can significantly impact blood sugar levels. ECP sessions provide a calming effect, reducing stress and promoting relaxation, which can contribute to better diabetes management.
