How To Treat And Manage Diabetic Neuropathy

Follow A Healthy Diet

A healthy diet can help a diabetes patient, particularly one with diabetic neuropathy, keep their blood sugar levels between eighty and 130 milligrams per deciliter before consuming their meals and under 180 milligrams per deciliter after meals. Keep blood sugar stable can help an individual affected by diabetic neuropathy slow the progression of their disease and symptoms.

Following a healthy diet as part of a patient's treatment plan can help prevent or relieve problems with digestion, which may include vomiting, nausea, gastroparesis, and belching. It is recommended for diabetic neuropathy patients to consume numerous smaller meals that contain low amounts of fat and fiber during the day. A patient may find it more beneficial to consume for pureed foods and soups to help keep food moving through their digestive tract at an adequate pace.
