Knowledge

A disease or medical condition is usually less daunting the more we know about it. That’s why the knowledge section of our guide provides information on topics such as the various types of insulin and how to avoid high and low blood sugar, along with foot care tips.

The program will teach you step by step what you can do to stay healthy in the long term and cope better with diabetes.

Recipes

Eating a healthy diet is the cornerstone of treatment for diabetes. This program will show you that when it comes to treating diabetes, it’s not all about banning certain foods. Instead, it’s about choosing foods wisely. The Curalie app will suggest a new recipe for you to try out every week. At the same time, you have access to over 40 other recipes you can use anytime.

Exercise

Exercise is just as important for those with type 2 diabetes as eating a healthy diet. That is especially true during the early stages of the disease. This training program is aligned to your individual needs. The main aim of the Diabetes Guide is to help you find time to incorporate small units of physical activity into your daily routine – at lunch, in the morning, and at other times. Train with us to enhance endurance, strength, and coordination. Multiple smaller units of physical activity are better than one long one. Spread your training out over the whole week if you can. That will help you do something good for your body on a regular basis.

Relaxation

Relaxation is an important part of a healthy lifestyle. Our relaxation techniques, such as breathing exercises and progressive muscle relaxation, can help you stay calm and cope with stress. This is important, since stress is a risk factor for high blood sugar and high blood pressure.

Logging of data

You can use Curalie to quickly and easily log your vital data and activity, so you can keep tabs on a range of values, such as your blood sugar levels, at all times. At the same time, your doctor can access these values at any time, which also helps support your type 2 diabetes treatment.
