Anthu omwe ali ndi matenda a shuga amatha kupewa kapena kuchepetsa kukula kwa zovuta za shuga poyang'anira ndi kuwongolera zinthu zitatu: shuga kuthamanga kwa magazi ndi mafuta.

• Kuwongolera shuga m'magazi. Pezani ndi kusunga mulingo wabwinobwino wa shuga m'magazi mwa kulemekeza njira zachipatala zokhazikitsidwa ndi gulu lachipatala. Kafukufuku wamkulu wasonyeza kufunikira kwa kuwongolera bwino shuga m'magazi, mosasamala kanthu za mtundu wa shuga^1-4 . Onani tsamba lathu la Diabetes (chidule).
• Kuyendetsa magazi. Yesetsani kuyandikira kwambiri kuthamanga kwa magazi momwe mungathere ndikuwongolera kuthamanga kwa magazi. Kuthamanga kwa magazi kwabwinobwino kumathandiza kupewa kuwonongeka kwa maso, impso, ndi mtima. Onetsetsani kuthamanga kwa magazi nthawi zonse. Onani tsamba lathu la Hypertension.
• Kuwongolera cholesterol. Ngati ndi kotheka, samalani kuti mulingo wa cholesterol m'magazi ukhale pafupi kwambiri ndi wabwinobwino. Izi zimathandiza kupewa matenda a mtima, vuto lalikulu kwa odwala matenda ashuga. Ndikoyenera kuchita kafukufuku wapachaka wa lipid, kapena mobwerezabwereza ngati dokotala akuwona kuti ndikofunikira. Onani tsamba lathu la Hypercholesterolemia.

Tsiku ndi tsiku, malangizo ena oletsa kapena kuchedwetsa zovuta

• Lumphani mayeso azachipatala kutsatiridwa kovomerezeka ndi gulu lachipatala. Kuyezetsa pachaka ndikofunikira monganso kuyezetsa maso. Ndikofunikiranso kukaonana ndi dotolo wamano pafupipafupi, chifukwa anthu odwala matenda ashuga amakonda kudwala chiseyeye.
• Lemekezani a dongosolo zakudya kukhazikitsidwa ndi dokotala kapena katswiri wa zakudya.
• Chitani masewera olimbitsa thupi osachepera mphindi 30, tsiku lililonse.
• Musatero kusuta.
• Kumwa madzi ambiri ngati mukudwala, mwachitsanzo, ngati muli ndi chimfine. Izi zimalowa m'malo mwa madzi otayika ndipo zimatha kuteteza matenda a shuga.
• Khalani ndi wantchito ukhondo wamapazi ndi kuwayesa iwo tsiku lililonse. Mwachitsanzo, yang'anani khungu pakati pa zala: yang'anani kusintha kulikonse kwa mtundu kapena maonekedwe (kufiira, khungu, matuza, zilonda, calluses). Uzani dokotala wanu za kusintha komwe kwadziwika. Matenda a shuga angayambitse dzanzi m'mapazi. Monga tanenera kale, mavuto ang’onoang’ono, osasamalidwa bwino angakule n’kukhala matenda aakulu.
• Madokotala akhala akulimbikitsa kwanthawi yayitali kuti anthu omwe ali ndi matenda a shuga azaka 40 ndi kupitilira apo amwe mlingo wochepa waaspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) tsiku lililonse kuti mtima ukhale wathanzi komanso mitsempha yamagazi. Cholinga chachikulu chinali kuchepetsa chiopsezo cha matenda a mtima. Kuyambira June 2011, Canadian Cardiovascular Society yalangiza motsutsana ndi aspirin ngati njira yodzitetezera, kwa anthu odwala matenda a shuga komanso osadwala matenda a shuga¹⁰. Zayesedwa kuti kumwa aspirin tsiku lililonse sikuli koyenera, chifukwa chochepa kwambiri popewa komanso zotsatira zosafunika zomwe zingagwirizane nazo. M'malo mwake, aspirin imakhala ndi chiopsezo chotaya magazi m'mimba komanso ngozi yotaya magazi muubongo (stroke).

  Lankhulani ndi dokotala ngati kuli kofunikira.

  Zindikirani kuti Canadian Cardiovascular Society ikupitiriza kulangiza mlingo wochepa wa aspirin tsiku ndi tsiku kwa anthu omwe anali ndi vuto la mtima kapena sitiroko (chifukwa cha kutsekeka kwa magazi), ndikuyembekeza kupeŵa kubwereza.
