Discover the Simplicity of Eating Well with Diabetes

Feeling overwhelmed by what to eat? You’re not alone.

With so many diet trends, conflicting advice, and rules, knowing what to put into your shopping basket, what, and how much to eat, it’s easy to be confused.

Maybe you worry about eating out, feelings of being hungry, or how to prepare meals that fit into your busy lifestyle.

And does trying to follow a diet for diabetes add more burden to your already busy life?

At Deconstructing Diabetes, we help you find a way to build sustainable habits.

GLP-1 MEDICATIONS & DIET

A 58-page eBook - a practical nutrition guide for people using GLP-1 medications for diabetes management or weight loss.

Inside, you’ll discover how to:

  • Manage appetite changes

  • Deal with common side effects

  • Support muscle and overall nutrition

  • Build sustainable eating habits, with confidence

Using a GLP-1 medication can feel overwhelming, whether it’s prescribed for diabetes, weight management, or both.

This guide is designed to simplify the process and give you the confidence to manage food intake, whether you are just beginning or already started.

For both people using GLP-1s, and health professionals who support them.
