Type 2 diabetes is a chronic condition where your body struggles to process insulin, leading to high blood sugar levels. For many people, being overweight exacerbates this problem, particularly when excess fat accumulates around the abdomen.
Studies have shown that losing even a small amount of weight—typically 5-10% of your body weight—can have a profound impact on managing type 2 diabetes. Weight loss enhances your body’s ability to use insulin effectively, which leads to better blood sugar control. This can reduce your HbA1c levels, a key measure of long-term glucose management, and even decrease your need for diabetes medications.
At Bramley Pharmacy, our weight loss programmes are supervised by experts who focus on both your short-term goals and long-term health outcomes. Losing weight can help you manage your condition more effectively and improve your quality of life. This applies to patients who have been newly diagnosed or have been living with type 2 diabetes for years.
