(evidence A) Lwering A1C t belw 7% has been shwn t reduce micrvascular cmplicatins f diabetes. Less-stringent A1C gals (such as <8 r 64 mml/ml) may be apprpriate fr patients with: a histry f severe hypglycemia limited life expectancy advanced micrvascular r macrvascular cmplicatins extensive c-mrbid cnditins lng-standing diabetes with a difficult t achieve gal despite diabetes educatin and mnitring and effective dses f multiple glucse-lwering agents including insulin (evidence B) Preprandial capillary plasma glucse: mg/dl Peak pstprandial capillary plasma glucse: <180 mg/dl Frm the America Cllege f Physicians: Gals and target ranges fr glycemic cntrl shuld be persnalized based n a discussin f benefits and harms f pharmactherapy, patients preferences, patients general health and life expectancy, treatment burden, and csts f care rather than a fixed target A1c fr all Shared Decisin making is imprtant in setting A1c gals 3

4 A1C AIC testing shuld be perfrmed rutinely in all patients with diabetes. The frequency f A1C testing is dependent n the clinical situatin, the treatment regimen and the clinician s judgment. A1C testing is subject t limitatins. In cnditins that affect red bld cell turnver (hemlytic and ther anemias, recent bld transfusins, use f drugs that stimulate erythrpiesis, ESRD, and pregnancy) and in hemglbin variants, ptins include mre frequent use f SMBG, CGM use, fructmsamine, and 1,5-anhydrglucitl Pharmaclgic therapy fr Type 2 diabetes Metfrmin, if nt cntraindicated and if tlerated, is the preferred initial pharmaclgical agent fr type 2 diabetes. (Evidence A) Metfrmin shuld be cntinued when used in cmbinatin with ther agents, including insulin, if nt cntraindicated and if tlerated (Evidence A) Self-mnitring f bld glucse (SMBG) Patients n multiple-dse insulin (MDI), r insulin pump therapy shuld perfrm self-mnitring bld glucse (SMBG) prir t meals and snacks, ccasinally pstprandial, at bedtime, prir t exercise, when they suspect lw bld glucse, after treating lw bld glucse until they are nrmglycemic, and prir t critical tasks such as driving. (Evidence B) When prescribed as part f a brad educatinal prgram, SMBG may help t guide treatment decisin and/r self-management fr patients taking less frequent insulin injectins (evidence B) r nninsulin therapies (evidence E) When prescribing SMBG, ensure that patients receive nging instructin and regular evaluatin f SMBG techniques and results, as well as their ability t use SMBG data t adjust therapy. (Evidence E) When used prperly, cntinuus glucse mnitring (CGM) in cnjunctin with intensive insulin regimens is a useful tl t lwer A1c in adults with type 1 diabetes wh are nt meeting glycemic targets (Evidence A) Medical Nutritin Therapy (MNT) Individuals with prediabetes r diabetes shuld receive individualized MNT t achieve treatment gals, preferably by a registered dietician familiar with the cmpnents f diabetes MNT.(Evidence A) Mdest weight lss may prvide clinical benefits in sme individuals with diabetes, especially thse early in the disease prcess. Interventin prgrams t facilitate weight lss are recmmended (Evidence A) Fr individuals n a flexible insulin prgram, educatin n carbhydrate cunting, and in sme cases fat and prtein gram estimatin, t determine mealtime insulin dsage, can imprve glycemic cntrl. (Evidence A) Fr individuals n a fixed daily insulin dse, having a cnsistent pattern f carbhydrate intake with respect t time and amunt can imprve glycemic cntrl and reduce the risk f hypglycemia (Evidence B) Individuals with diabetes and thse at risk shuld avid sugar-sweetened beverages t cntrl weight and reduce their risk f CVD and fatty liver (Evidence B) and shuld 4

5 minimize the cnsumptin f fds with added sugar that have the capacity t displace healthier, mre nutrient-dense fd chices (Evidence A) Ingested prtein appears t increase insulin respnse withut increasing plasma glucse, s carbhydrate surces high in prtein shuld be avided when trying t treat r prevent hypglycemia (Evidence B) An eating plan emphasizing elements f a Mediterranean-style diet rich in mnunsaturated and plyunsaturated fats may be cnsidered t imprve glucse metablism and lwer CVD risk and can be an effective alternative t a diet lw in ttal fat but relatively high in carbhydrates. (Evidence B) Eating fds rich in lng-chain fatty acids, such as fatty fish (EPA and DHA) and nuts and seeds (ALA) is recmmended t prevent r treat CVD (Evidence B). Hwever, evidence des nt supprt a beneficial rle fr the rutine use f n-3 dietary supplements (Evidence A). Alchl cnsumptin may place peple with diabetes at increased risk fr hypglycemia, especially if taking insulin r insulin secretaggues. Educatin and awareness regarding the recgnitin and management f delayed hypglycemia are warranted (Evidence B) Sdium shuld be limited t <2,300 mg/day, althugh further restrictin may be indicated fr thse with bth diabetes and hypertensin (evidence B) Nnnutritive sweeteners as a substitute fr calric sweeteners have the ptential t reduce verall calrie and carbhydrate intake and are generally safe t use within the defined acceptable daily intake levels (Evidence B) Macrnutrient distributin shuld be based n an individualized assessment f current eating patterns, preferences, and metablic gals. A variety f eating patterns are acceptable fr the management f diabetes t include the Mediterranean, Dietary Appraches t Stp Hypertensin (DASH), and plant-based diets. Individual meal planning shuld fcus n persnal preferences, needs, and gals. The diabetes plate methd can be useful fr prviding a visual guide Diabetes Self-Management Educatin (DSME) and Supprt (DSMS) All peple with diabetes shuld participate in diabetes self-management educatin t facilitate the knwledge, skills, and ability necessary fr diabetes self-care and in diabetes self-management supprt t assist with implementing and sustaining skills and behavirs needed fr nging self-management (Evidence B) Self-management educatin and supprt shuld be patient centered, may be given in grup r individual settings r by using technlgy, and shuld help guide clinical decisins (Evidence A) Physical Activity Mst adults with type 1 (evidence C) and type 2 (evidence B) diabetes shuld engage in 150 minutes r mre f mderate-t-vigrus physical activity per week spread ver at least 3 days a week with n mre than 2 cnsecutive days withut activity; and they shuld engage in 2-3 sessins per week f resistant exercise.
