Type 1 Diabetes

Type 1 diabetes used to be called insulin-dependent or juvenile diabetes, usually occurs among individuals under 20, although it can occur at any age.

At Dr. S Weightloss & Wellness we combine our expertise with the latest technology to meet your diabetic needs.

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease that destroys the body’s ability to make insulin. Currently, no one knows how to prevent type 1 diabetes, and it is the most difficult type to manage, but it can be treated successfully

Type 2 Diabetes

Type 2 Diabetes is the most common type of diabetes and it is much more prevalent in adults. If you have type 2 Diabetes, your body doesn’t use insulin properly; this is called insulin resistance.

Type 2 DM is directly caused by excess weight, and many common anti-diabetic medications cause weight gain and the need for more medications, creating a vicious cycle.

Dr S will enroll you in our Weight loss program to truly treat your Diabetes by treating the root cause of the problem and help you come off some of diabetic medications including insulin..

Pre-Diabetes

Prediabetes is a serious health condition where blood sugar levels are higher than normal, but not high enough yet to be diagnosed as type 2 diabetes.

More than 1 in 3 American adults have prediabetes, of those, more than 80% don’t know they have it. Prediabetes puts you at increased risk of developing T2DM, heart disease and stroke.

If you have prediabetes, Dr S can help you prevent or delay type 2 diabetes and other serious health problems.

More emphasis needs to be on early recognition through screening and treatment during this phase of the disease process to slow its progression. we recognize that early intervention with prediabetes is crucial to altering the course of diabetes in a person’s life and we strive to support patients with this disease process as early as possible.

Insulin Resistance

Insulin resistance means your body can’t respond properly to the insulin it makes. Your blood sugar and her A1c could be completely normal. The routine blood test your doctor checks may miss it.

Insulin resistance can lead to type 2 diabetes, it precedes diabetes and pre-diabetes by many years and it doubles risk of cardiovascular disease.

At Dr S Weightloss & Wellness, we focus on prevention first. We recognize that early intervention is crucial to slow or revert the progression of this disease process.

Whether you have T1DM, or T2DM, understanding your disease along with keeping a close partnership with your Diabetes specialist are keys to successful management.
