PEOPLE NEWS – Diabetes is a disease that threatens the health of Indonesian people, including Ogan Komering Ilir. Without proper treatment, diabetes can cause a number of serious problems. For this reason, PAFI (Indonesian Pharmaceutical Experts Association) in Ogan Komering Ilir introduced the initiative “3M” – Measure, Control and Manage.
This campaign is designed to help people prevent and control the risk of diabetes in an easy and effective way. With a simple approach that affects aspects of daily life, you can start to maintain the health of your body from now on.
pafiogankomeringilir.org provides practical guidance so that people are increasingly aware of the importance of self-care in preventing diabetes. This campaign invites people to recognize the risk of diabetes and take early preventive measures, either through measuring blood sugar levels, controlling food and physical activity, or ‘ stress management. For pharmacy students and other health workers, 3M’s approach can be an inspiration and a concrete example in helping the public become more aware of the risk of diabetes.
Measurements: Start with standard measurements
The first step in preventing and managing diabetes is to understand your own body condition through regular blood sugar measurements. In the 3M campaign, PAFI encourages people to do blood sugar checks independently or regularly at health facilities. Measuring blood sugar is not only a preventive measure, but also a basis for knowing whether the healthy lifestyle you live in is effective. You don’t have to wait until you feel bad symptoms – starting to measure your blood sugar early will help you take preventive measures before it’s too late.
Perfect blood sugar measurements can be done at least once a month or according to a doctor’s recommendation, especially for those with a family history of diabetes. With data from these measurement results, you can more easily monitor changes that are occurring and determine more appropriate measures.
Control: Diet and physical activity
After learning about blood sugar conditions, the next step in the 3M initiative is learning to control diet and physical activity. Type 2 diabetes is closely related to lifestyle, especially when it comes to food and lack of physical activity. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to nutritional intake and increase the frequency of exercise. You can start by replacing high carbohydrate foods with foods that are rich in fiber, such as vegetables, fruits and whole grains. Consuming vegetable protein and drinking more water can also be good options for controlling blood sugar levels.
