[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom in Europe has a nutritionist, as part of her diabetes care. I really hate when people pretend obesity is just a US problem. People can struggle everywhere.[/quote] Yes people can struggle everywhere. However, in the USA, once diagnosed with Diabetes, seeing a nutritionist for even 6 sessions is Optional. And that is all insurance covers. IMO, someone with diabetes should be encouraged (ie insurance pays for it) to see a nutritionist for 6-10 sessions initially then every 2-4 weeks, then after it's under control, every 3 months check in. But instead we focus on medications rather than trying to actually control it with diet and exercise. Because yes, Type 2 diabetes can definately be controlled by diet and exercise, but you have to do it before it gets too bad. And you will be eating so much differently than most everyone else and what you are bombarded with in "food ads" [/quote]
