Food supplements are effective in diabetic patients.

Food supplements are effective in diabetic patients.

I am exploring the data from clinical trials reported that chromium and magnesium to control blood sugar levels. This mineral are easy to buy online and is a food safety activities, however, in reducing blood sugar is not enough to substitute a drug. For patients with diabetes, high blood sugar levels recommended exercise and diets low in protein to help control blood sugar levels. Chromium is an essential trace mineral that is needed for glucose metabolism. It works by enhancing the effect of insulin. Chromium, usually in the form of chromium picolinate, is a popular supplement among people with diabetes and those who are interested in losing weight.

Hypomagnesemia is common in patients with diabetes, especially those with glycosuria, ketoacidosis, and excess urinary magnesium losses. Deficiency of magnesium can potentially cause states of insulin resistance. Studies have examined

magnesium’s potential role in the evolution of such complications as neuropathy,

retinopathy, thrombosis, and hypertension.

Medical Errors and DM Care

Medical Errors and DM Care

Medical error is an inaccurate or incomplete diagnosis and/or treatment of a disease; injury; syndrome; behavior; infection or other ailment.

However, medical error definitions are subject to debate, as there are many types of medical error from minor to major,[1] and causality is often poorly determined. The Health Grades study statistics, based on AHRQ MedPAR data, were based on administrative records, not clinical records, and largely overlooked multi-causality of outcomes.

Common pitfall in DM Care are...

1 No aspirin in diabetes patient ( aspirin can decreased cardiovascular disease and mortality rate in DM patients)
2 No Statin in diabetes patient
3 A1C more than 7.0%
4 Blood Pressure more than 130/90 mm Hg
