Dear Kwagala most likely your mum has type 2 diabetics this is mainly caused by our table manners( i mean foods we take), so you can control it using dieting if it is still early, but it is highly recommended to seek medical advice. Good day

Dieting is not enough, it should go along with medication.

Try to give her nutritional supplement and exercise. for diabetic exercise is like dose of insulin. these treatment should be followed for a long period of time. by doing so you ll observe positive result.

any treatment you take should be under medical care. for m ore information pl;ease contact through my mail. gudilajtarimo@yahoo.com
