A patient's guide to identifying and executing easy strategies and positive behaviors to help better manage their Type 2 diabetes.

Health Habits for Diabetes highlights how to take the motivation to change from their diagnosis, use willpower, examine their sources of influence, form habits, and form a new integrated identity around healthy behaviors. Health Habits for Diabetes provides a what, why, and how for each stage of health behavior change including medication compliance, physical activity, mindset and nutrition.

Most of the things that make us sick are preventable. They are preventable because they are the result of our behaviors. Using examples from research and practice, Health Habits for Diabetes uses this behavioral focus to help patients manage their Type 2 diabetes.
