Abstract

Diabetes is a highly prevalent, chronic disease that over time generates potentially serious complications. In the treatment of diabetes, the use of drugs that have shown significant benefits is important, but, in addition, the use of non-pharmacological interventions is essential, which constitute an efficient and effective way to reduce the appearance of diabetes itself and the complications of the disease. These interventions, which are described here, include health education, aimed at incorporating a healthier lifestyle, dietary modifications, increased physical activity or psychological support. Finally, the characteristics that a care system for people with diabetes must meet to achieve the established objectives are discussed.
