How Our Diabetes Dietitians Can Help
Feel like everyone's telling you something different to manage your diabetes you're right? Let's clarify what, when and how much to eat (without strict rules)
BGLs jumping all over the place and you have no idea why? We'll help you understand which foods to eat and with what to reduce the risk of extreme highs and lows
Maybe you already know what to eat, and the real battle is implementing the strategies. We'll help you make changes with simple and doable tips
Being diagnosed with diabetes can amplify emotional eating leading to frustrating coping mechanisms, often evolving to eating disorders. We work together to identify triggers and implement healthier strategies.
