Diabetes Self-management Education
Nutrition education is a critical component of almost all disease prevention programs. It has been proved that behavioral change is directly related to the amount of nutrition education received.
Nutrition Education involves the communication of nutrition-related information that will equip individuals, families, and communities to make healthful food choices.
Diabetes self-management education (DSME) and medical nutrition therapy (MNT) are individual and complementary services to improve diabetes care. MNT combined with DSME improves outcomes.
DSME is covered by MEDICARE and most of other insurance.
