  • Have you been diagnosed with diabetes or prediabetes?
  • Is your A1c not at your goal?
  • Are you at risk for diabetes? Do you have a family history of diabetes?
  • Has your health provider told you your sugars are up and you need to eat better and/or lose weight?  
  • Are you confused about what you can eat? Or struggling to manage diabetes?

If you answered YES, we will provide a unique nutritional assessment going through your medical history, your concerns, and create an individualized plan that works for you.  We can give you the tools to help better manage your diabetes. If you have been told you have diabetes, prediabetes, or are at risk, then we can provide you a meal plan to help manage your blood sugars that fits your lifestyle needs.

Do you know your ABCs*?

*ABC is A1C (a snapshot of what your blood sugars have been averaging the past 2-3 months), B is blood pressure, and C is cholesterol.  It is important to know YOUR numbers.

What Is Diabetes?

Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes are both chronic and progressive diseases that affect the way one’s body regulates blood sugar or glucose.  Glucose is the fuel the body needs for energy. In order for the sugar to enter cells, insulin is needed. People with Type 1 diabetes do not produce insulin themselves and need to receive insulin via injections.  People with Type 2 diabetes don’t respond to the insulin their body is producing, or don’t make enough. Both types of diabetes can lead to high blood sugar or glucose.  

Prediabetes means that your blood glucose (blood sugar) is higher than normal, but not high enough to be diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.  Glucose is the fuel the body needs for energy. Prediabetes often has no signs or symptoms. Although we don’t know the exact cause of prediabetes, one’s family history, genetics, inactivity, and excess fat (especially around the stomach) are risk factors. People who have prediabetes don’t process blood sugar efficiently anymore, resulting in glucose building up in the bloodstream which is not able to enter the cells to provide fuel for energy.  High blood pressure, low HDL cholesterol (the “good cholesterol”), and high levels of triglycerides (fat) are associated with prediabetes.

Without lifestyle changes, people with prediabetes are likely to develop type 2 diabetes related to insulin resistance or lack of insulin production.  

Evidence shows that nutrition therapy improves blood sugar, helps with weight management, and improves cardiovascular risk factors.

How We Help

The good news is that healthy eating, increasing physical activity, and maintaining a healthy weight can help normalize your blood sugars.  The latest Consensus Report recommends individualized nutrition counseling for all people with diabetes and prediabetes.  Evidence shows that working with an RDN can decrease A1C* by up to 2%.

The Diabetes Prevention Program showed that people with prediabetes who lost weight reduced the incidence of type 2 diabetes by 58% over 3 years.  Losing weight (5-10% of one’s starting weight) can improve insulin action and lower fasting blood sugar.  Regular physical activity can improve insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugars.

Meeting with a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist for Diabetes or Prediabetes

Registered Dietitians are experts in the nutrition field. Many of the RDNs at Anderson’s Nutrition have a Master’s Degree with additional certifications. All of them hold the credentials of an RDN through the CDR.  An additional certification important for dietitians assisting diabetic patients is the CDCES. A CDCES, Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist is someone who has experience and knowledge working with the prevention, treatment, and management of diabetes and prediabetes.

Education 

Our trained experts will work with you to create realistic and customized goals because we want to ensure long-lasting results. We use small changes, focusing on the why and how’s, so that blood sugar levels normalize naturally.

We will provide individualized recommendations for carbohydrate consistency, heart-healthy foods, and meal composition to support a healthy lifestyle around diabetes management and/or prevention.

We will help you design a new lifestyle that will allow you to use food and exercise as the first line of defense against the effects of rising blood sugars. Using the latest research, we will teach you natural ways that you can normalize your blood sugars and decrease the risk of developing diabetes.

Coaching

Behavior change can be hard. That is why our dietitians are trained in behavior-change coaching, to help you identify barriers and create realistic strategies so that you can reach your goals and accomplish difficult tasks.

Results

Our clients typically experience weight loss, more energy, and increased confidence to manage prediabetes while working with our team of RDNs.   Many have seen a decrease in A1C, and some return to normal A1C levels. We work with our clients to incorporate a broad range of healthy lifestyle choices to decrease the risk of developing diabetes that can be maintained lifelong.
