Tip of the Week
Most of us carry a water bottle with us when we exercise, whether it is going for a walk or working out in the gym. Water is important for a variety of reasons, and not just for exercise, especially for those with diabetes.
Proper hydration promotes:
1) Kidney function - assists in flushing out toxins and waste products 2) Stabilization of blood pressure - low pressure contributes to dizziness and falls 3) Dilution of sugars in the blood, so that dehydration-related hyperglycemia does not occur 4) Transport of sugar as fuel, and the insulin to utilize it 5) Bowel function - dehydration contributes to constipation 6) Lower risk for ketoacidosis - toxic state caused by use of body fat as fuel 7) Better circulation to the extremities
Water supports many body systems and is a key element in any healthy eating plan. Talk to your doctor about how much water you need each day, and then grab a bottle "to go."
