How can you help your patients living with diabetes understand these changes?

Nutrition labels provide useful information for patients looking to make healthier food choices. For most people living with diabetes, nutrition label reading is a part of daily life. Although these modifications will ultimately make their lives easier, they will still require your support in helping them to understand these changes. So as the revised labels roll out, spend just a few minutes to review them—for example, highlight the new recommended % daily values for sugar and what this means, as well as the new ‘front-of-package’ symbol to show that the product has added sugar. This may have a lasting impact on their diabetes journey!
