Diabetes Care

Take care of your health by regularly checking your diabetes performance. To use our products, you must follow a diabetic diet. A diabetes diet simply means eating the healthiest foods in moderate amounts and sticking to regular mealtimes. A diabetes diet is a healthy-eating plan that's naturally rich in nutrients and low in fat and calories. Key elements are fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. 

After that, you can use our Performa blood glucose meter kit or any other product meant to check the level of glucose in your blood. Out kit will deliver the results in 5 seconds. The Accu-Chek Performa system is easy to use and easy to train and its simplicity fits into the lifestyles of most people with diabetes. With no coding or initial meter setup, nurses and diabetes educators can train patients even faster than before! The Accu-Chek Performa systems effectively help people with diabetes to check their blood sugar with ease and confidence, enabling diabetes management with accurate results they can trust.

Here are 4 ways to manage your diabetes for life:

1. Learn about diabetes. 

There are three main types of diabetes: 

-- Type 1 -- your body does not make insulin and this is a problem because you need insulin to take the sugar (glucose) from the foods you eat and turn it into energy for your body. 

-- Type 2 -- your body does not make or use insulin well. You may need to take pills or insulin to help control your diabetes. Type 2 is the most common type of diabetes.

-- Gestational -- Some women get this kind of diabetes when they are pregnant. Most of the time, it goes away after the baby is born. But even if it goes away, these women and their children have a greater chance of getting diabetes later in life.

Remember, you are the most important member of your health care, so you always should keep under control your glucose. Don't eat too many sweets every day and get some exercise daily!
