What is the criteria for deciding which diabetic diet to place someone on?
I am an RN attempting to find this information and coming up short. How do you decide whether to place someone on a 1200 ADA diet or a 2500 ADA diet?
Chosen Answer:
It depends on the severity, the age of onset, and the type. I assume you are asking about type II diabetes in an older person. If the person is still producing sufficient insulin to control glucose when the diet is stabilized, then
