IDS Diabetes Survey: January 2023

IDS Monthly Survey: January 2023

LAST MONTH’S SURVEY QUESTION:

In last month’s edition of Diabetes Bites, we asked how much effort/energy do you really put into managing your glucose levels at Holiday Meals.

Here’s how you responded:

12% A ton.  I focus on keeping my blood sugars within a normal range.

73% A fair amount.  It‘s important to me not to let my blood sugar get dangerously high or low.

13% A little bit.  Blood sugar control is important, but it’s not my highest priority on special occasions.

2% Absolutely none.  That’s why it’s called a Holiday!

The results show how truly engaged our readers are with their diabetes self-management.  Eighty five percent report that glucose management remains a high priority, even during the holidays.
