Type 2 Diabetes in Children

Self-management

Because type 2 diabetes is affected by lifestyle choices, making changes to your family’s habits can go a long way toward helping your child manage the condition. In many cases, losing weight, becoming more physically active and building healthy eating habits can help lower blood sugar to a healthy range. Children often adapt to habits best when adults model these habits. Creating healthy habits together as a family can make a BIG difference.
