Why do patients with diabetes not stick to a diet plan?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It's not that every Diabetic patient does not stick to diet plan, it mostly depends on the person's lack of motivation irrespective of the disease. It's also understandable since diabetes is a long standing medical condition, every patient may need repetitive conusellings to adhere to diet plan.

I'm really concerned about my wife's health because her vitamin D levels are super low; it's only at 8 when it should be around 40. Our doctor has prescribed her these vitamin D3 sachets, each containing 60,000 units. She's supposed to take one sachet a week for six weeks, and then after that, it's one sachet every two weeks for another six weeks. That seems like a lot to me. I'm curious if 60,000 units is too high of a dosage for her?
The dosage of 60,000 units of vitamin D3 once a week for 6 weeks, followed by once every two weeks for the next 6 weeks, is a common treatment regimen for correcting severe vitamin D deficiency. This high dosage is typically used to rapidly increase vitamin D levels in the body. It is important to follow the prescribed regimen as directed by the doctor to effectively raise the vitamin D levels.
