Diabetes is one such disease which is giving sleepless nights to many. However, with proper care and intake of correct diabetes medicines one can easily get rid of the disease without much effort.

8. Try to have control over yourself

• You should be the first person who should try to check the diabetes level. Even if the people around you try to help you to have healthy life style, without your own effort, it is never possible to achieve the same. So, control your diet. Stop having sweets and engage in physical activities to avoid the risk of diabetes.

9. Spend time with others• Spending time with friends and family members also
