2018 Diyabet Ajandası

2018 Diabetes Agenda

Book Introduction:

Dear readers, diabetics and their relatives,

Diabetes is a chronic disease that progresses with high blood sugar and causes damage at various levels in almost all organs. Although its frequency is increasing in almost all societies, this increase is much more evident in our society. Mistakes in our lifestyle determine this pace. It is very important that patients begin to be educated from the moment of diagnosis and to be informed together with their relatives. Even if patients are given frequent refreshers, examination and training hours are not sufficient. The Internet environment contains a lot of harmful and incorrect information. Patients cannot always make the correct discrimination in this regard.

For this purpose, the "2017 Diabetes Agenda", which I prepared last year, attracted great attention from diabetics, nutritionists, diabetes education nurses and physicians who have had diabetes for many years and are still trying to continue their path with incorrect information. I happily followed the diabetics who came with used books drawn with colored pencils and marked with bookmarks. I also received very positive comments from my physician friends.

The fact that the important information I emphasized during my patient examination was organized, in the form of an agenda spread over a year, and equipped with fresh and up-to-date information to be read every day, made it easier to understand and learn. For readers who do not want to read a book from beginning to end, the information, reminders, suggestions, warnings, recipes, healthy snack alternatives and videos provided day by day were highly appreciated.

My goal was to reach the whole from the part through a different way of being informed. The 2017 Diabetes Agenda was very successful in this regard.

The agenda has been enriched with the suggestions of my patients and friends, new additional information and new recipes. We are now ready for 2018.

I hope it will be useful and I hope you have a happy, enjoyable and healthier 2018.
