Along with the endocrinologist, our role is not only to provide a diet plan but also to help the patient and caregivers create an innovative diet plan based upon accurate calculations taking into account both medical and nutritional treatments; thus enabling the patient to control the blood sugar level.

The nutrition care plan passes by many steps, including:

• Educate about diabetes and the lifestyle for each individual case
• Educate about hypo-and hyperglycemia along with management of the stated symptoms
• Educate about the nutritional needs during physical activity
• Control of food during occasions and feasts
• What should be done if a diabetic person gets sick
• The adequate carbohydrate count in every meal
• Food label reading
• Healthy shopping
• Distributing nutritional awareness leaflets and diet plans
• Regular follow-up
