Type 2 Diabetes in Italy: The Numbers
Over 3.5 million Italians live with Type 2 Diabetes. Regular blood glucose monitoring is the cornerstone of daily management: it reduces complications and improves quality of life.
When to Measure Blood Glucose
- Fasting (morning, before breakfast): baseline value — normal <100 mg/dL
- Preprandial (before meals): guides insulin or medication intake
- Postprandial (2h after meals): target <140 mg/dL
- Before physical activity: prevents exercise-induced hypoglycemia
