Abstract

 The prevalence of type 2 diabetes is very high in the United States and across the globe especially among adults aged above 45 years. Everyone is at risk of suffering type 2 diabetes regardless of their gender, race, religion, or any social, economic, or political affiliation. Type 2 diabetes is characterized by an increase in blood glucose either due to insufficient insulin, excess fat in the body, or reduced functions of the pancreas. This study aims to provide therapy procedures for type 2 diabetes. The treatment of type 2 diabetes involves medication and management of the condition. Management involves regular exercise, having a healthy nutrition plan, and weight loss, among others. However, since other conditions such as high blood pressure, stroke, heart attack, and amputation are likely to occur because of diabetes or aggravate type 2 diabetes the intervention takes into consideration of such comorbid conditions. The patients should be examined by a team health care professional and put on a program that works better for their condition. Also, they should be educated to self-manage their conditions. It is recommended that once the patient knows the intervention that works well for them, they should put it into routine practice to ensure effective management of type 2 diabetes.
