Follow on Google News | FREE Nutritional Therapy for DiabeticsMedical Nutrition Therapy is a Free Service offered by Portrait Health Centers of Buffalo Grove, IL to seniors on Medicare who have diabetes or kidney disease.
By: Portrait Health Centers Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) involves a Registered Dietitian who meets with an eligible patient to discuss meal plans, meal preparation, and dietary strategies to maintain healthy blood glucose levels. The dietitian works along with the patient and their caregiver to create a regimen designed to provide positive results and get blood glucose levels back to normal. On a subsequent visit, the Registered Dietitian follows up with the patient and assesses progress. After the third session, it will be determined if more therapy is needed or if the patient is able to maintain healthy glucose levels on his or her own. Reduced diabetes complications have been demonstrated through MNT. Other benefits of MNT include a decreased risk of falling, improved immunity, and fewer hospitalizations among MNT participants. Some other benefits include fewer episodes of memory loss and confusion as well as reduced loss of sensation in the feet and hands, called neuropathy. Better dietary habits and enhanced physical strength improve patients’ fitness and overall well-being, which is the ultimate goal of MNT.
