Miss K - Athletic and weight-conscious

Glucerna SR and Blood Glucose Control
  • Aerobics instructor
  • Type 1 diabetic for 5 years
  • Compliant with doctor-prescribed diet
  • Active in sports and other physical activities

Miss K has been active in sports all her life and currently teaches one aerobics class early in the morning and a yoga class in the evening. She often needs a pre-exercise snack to help control her blood glucose and prevent hypoglycemia while teaching aerobics class. Her doctor is pleased with how she manages her disease and has prescribed a 1800-calorie diabetic diet to provide enough calories for her busy lifestyle and to keep her glucose levels under control. Convenience is a big factor in maintaining her healthy diet.
