ACHIEVE AND MAINTAIN : BLOOD GLUCOSE LEVELS IN THE NORMAL RANGE OR AS CLOSE TO NORMAL AS IS SAFELY POSSIBLE A LIPID AND LIPOPROTEIN PROFILE THAT REDUCES THE RISK FOR VASCULAR DISEASE BLOOD PRESSURE LEVELS IN THE NORMAL RANGE OR AS CLOSE TO NORMAL AS IS SAFELY POSSIBLE Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) in Diabetes Management

3. MNT HAS REPORTED DECREASES IN HBA1C OF: ~1% in type 1 1-2% in type 2 MNT REDUCES LDL-C 15-25mg/dl MNT EFFECTIVE IN REDUCING HTN IMPROVEMENTS APPARENT IN 3-6 MONTHS Effectiveness of MNT

7. Unexpected Result

8. LIFESTYLE INTERVENTION (LI) PRODUCED Moderate weight loss 6.2% vs. 0.9 among diabetes support and education Intervention group did not reduce the occurrence of heart attacks or stroke below what was seen in the study’s diabetes education and support group LI REDUCED DIABETES MEDICATION, BLOOD PRESSURE, HDL-C, TG, INCREASED FITNESS AND FUNCTIONAL MOBILITY AND GREATER IMPROVEMENTS IN Q.O.L AND IN SLEEP APNEA LOOK AHEAD RESULTS
