Assuming the friends mother has type 2 diabetes, there are many aspects in your day to day life that he can take to lower his risk of getting type 2 diabetes. Exercising regularly and eating a healthy balanced diet is key to preventing this disease. He can reduce the amount of fat in his diet, especially saturated and trans fats, and eat more nutritious fruits, vegetables and high fiber foods. Moderate physical activity (I.e. going for a run) 2-4 days of the week accompanied with a healthy diet can help manage weight, reduce blood glucose levels and can also improve blood pressure and cholesterol. The big idea behind these daily changes is to manage his weight. Excess body fat, particularly if stored around the abdomen, can increase the body’s resistance to the hormone insulin which is responsible for the absorption of glucose from the blood into the bodily tissues. Keeping up these habits will drastically reduce the risk of him getting type 2 diabetes.

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

the appropriate tone to use in this instance would be a stern but kind and understanding tone. you don't want to be too forecul in order to avoid the patient rebelling however, you must be stern since it is a matter of life and death; the best course of action is to be entirely honest about the serious effects his habits have on his health. Based on his past actions of following the regimens prescribed by other doctors, he seems to want to lose weight and do better. The best way is to entirely avoid the point of temptation and try to keep it out of sight and out of mind. being kind is important since people react better to kindness rather than control, showing how much you care could cause the patient to want to do better.
