Prevelance and Impact of Diabetes

According to Diabetes Canada, 29% of all Canadians live with diabetes or prediabetes and 1 in 10 women who give birth experience diabetes while pregnant.  Diabetes is no doubt one of the most common chronic disease in Canada.  Statistics have shown people with diabetes are 3 times more likely to be hospitalized with cardiovascular disease, 12 times more likely to be hospitalized with end-stage renal disease and almost 20 times more likely to be hospitalized for a lower limb amputation compared to the general population. Diabetes is the leading cause of blindness, contributes to incidence of strokes, heart attacks, kidney failure requiring dialysis and leg and foot amputations.

Naturopathic approach for diabetes aims at stabilizing blood sugar within a healthy range through lifestyle and dietary adjustments.  Dietary guidance will be provided to strive for more balanced blood sugar throughout the day. Herbal medicines and nutritional supplements may be used to correct nutritional deficiencies and support blood sugar management.  Depending on your health situation, Dr. Cheung will determine which areas are the highest priority to address and which approach is likely to be effective for you.
