Abstract

Diabetes and prediabetes are highly prevalent metabolic conditions with significant public health and personal costs. Lifestyle modifications are widely recognized to play a key role in improving the management of such conditions and may prevent their progression. However, the conveyance of specific lifestyle modifications to patients with diabetes and prediabetes is often limited during standard primary care visits, and not all patients are able to meet with a Registered Dietician (RD) or Certified Diabetes Educator (CDE). Access to concise, generalizable educational materials that can easily be distributed to patients through the electronic medical record system is accordingly a valuable tool for primary care providers. This project involved collaboration with two local RDs, one of whom is also a CDE, to create one such educational material with simple tips for improving post-meal glucose control.
