To help facilitate these changes, these individuals require clear recommendations based on established research that can help them quickly make the adjustments they need to improve their condition and create lifelong healthy habits. What they need is an action plan. Designed specifically for those are ready to take action, Your Type 2 Diabetes Action Plan is a concise, step-based approach to quickly improving blood glucose management and quality of life. Diabetes self-care advice can often be overwhelming and, coupled with the shock of diagnosis, it's easy to be paralyzed by the enormity of new information. To prevent this, the Diabetes Action Plan breaks down complicated concepts and long-term goals into manageable steps that are measured in days and weeks. Each attainable, short-term objective then builds upon the previous step to engender long-term self-care change. Topics include improving glucose management and optimizing medication; increasing physical activity; creating a diabetes meal plan; treating and coping with complications; getting the most out of a health care team; improving family health, and much more. Presented in clear, actionable steps, this is the perfect guide to a longer, better life with type 2 diabetes.

ACSM's Exercise Management for Persons With Chronic Diseases and Disabilities

By: American College of Sports Medicine,Geoffrey E. Moore,J. Larry Durstine,Patricia L. Painter

The fourth edition of ACSM's Exercise Management for Persons With Chronic Diseases and Disabilities reveals common ground between medical and exercise professionals, creating a more collaborative approach to patient care. Developed by the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) with contributions from a specialized team of experts, this text presents a framework for optimizing patients’ and clients’ functionality by keeping them physically active. Featuring new content on common comorbid conditions, this edition is streamlined and updated to better suit chronic populations. This fourth edition of ACSM's Exercise Management for Persons With Chronic Diseases and Disabilities outlines why exercise is significant in the treatment and prevention of disease, advises medical and exercise professionals in considering proper exercise prescription protocols, and provides evidence-informed guidance on devising individualized exercise programs. Major advancements and features of the fourth edition include the following: • Current evidence on exercise management for persons with multiple conditions, providing guidance on working with these common yet complex populations • A refocused goal of using physical activity to optimize patients’ and clients’ functionality and participation in life activities rather than only to treat and prevent disease • Specific content to help physicians prescribe physical activity and exercise to patients for promotion of health, well-being, and longevity • Reorganization of case studies into one streamlined chapter along with commentary from the senior editor to encourage critical thinking and recognize the unique needs of each patient The case studies in the text are real-life scenarios that help professionals and clinicians combine scientific knowledge with experience to find appropriate solutions for each individual. Commentary on the case studies from the senior editor illustrates when improvisation may be appropriate and where further research is needed. Tables are highlighted throughout the text to help readers quickly reference important clinical information. Evidence-informed guidelines, suggested websites, and additional readings further encourage practical use of information and identify further learning opportunities. For instructors, an ancillary PowerPoint presentation package aids in classroom discussion. The critical element that distinguishes the fourth edition of ACSM's Exercise Management for Persons With Chronic Diseases and Disabilities is its unifying mission to incorporate physical activity and exercise in both disease treatment and prevention. Its emphasis on assisting people with multiple conditions, which is ever present in health care today, moves beyond primary and secondary prevention to focus on how patients and clients can be kept physically active and functionally fit.
