HbA1c climbing
Above 5.7% is pre-diabetes and above 6.5% is diabetes — but the trend matters more than any single reading.

Don’t just manage your sugar — learn to manage your lifestyle.
What it is
Managing diabetes is not just about taking medication. Diet, physical activity, regular blood sugar monitoring, sleep, stress management, and prescribed medication all play an important role in achieving better health.
At Know Health Diet Clinic, we believe that every individual needs a personalised approach. Your nutrition plan is designed according to your health goals, lifestyle, food preferences, blood reports, and individual requirements.
Our approach focuses on helping you improve blood sugar control, make smarter and sustainable food choices, maintain a healthy weight, improve energy and overall well-being, and reduce the risk of diabetes-related complications.
With the right knowledge, consistency, and professional guidance, significant improvements in blood sugar control are possible. Some people with type 2 diabetes may also achieve diabetes remission or require reduced medication, but any change in medication should always be made under the supervision of your treating doctor.
Because diabetes management is not about eating less. It is about eating right, staying active, monitoring consistently, and making the right choices every day.

Heaviness and sleepiness an hour after eating, one of the earliest signs of a steep glucose curve.
Particularly at night, and worth acting on quickly.
Alongside recurring skin or gum infections.
Early neuropathy, which makes tighter control genuinely urgent.
Should always be reviewed with your physician before any nutrition plan begins.
Drag the row. Everything here is a normal Indian kitchen staple — the change is in the amounts and the order.
