People living with diabetes are more likely to use supplements than those without the disease. A good vitamin and mineral supplement can ensure that vitamins and minerals required by the body are present in adequate amounts.
Supplements should not be used to replace standard diabetes treatment, doing so can put your health at risk. A supplement should also not replace a balanced diet but rather supplement the diet.
It’s important to talk to your doctor before using any supplements.
