Ushukela omningi egazini ulimaza imithambo yakho yegazi.Lo monakalo ungaholela ezinkingeni ezinkulu ezingxenyeni zomzimba wakho njengamehlo nezinyawo zakho.

Ukuhlolwa kwe-HbA1c

Ungakwazihlola lezi zilinganiso zikashukela egaziningokwakho, kodwa kuzodingeka uthenge ikhithi, kuyilapho uchwepheshe wakho wezokunakekelwa kwezempilo ezokwenza mahhala.Kuhlukile ekuhlolweni kokuhlaba umunwe, okuyisifinyezo samazinga kashukela egazini lakho ngesikhathi esithile, ngosuku oluthile.

Uthola izinga lakho le-HbA1c ngokuhlolelwa igazi ngudokotela noma unesi.Ithimba lakho lokunakekelwa kwezempilo lizokuhlelela lokhu, kodwa ukuxoxisane nodokotela wakho uma ungenayo izinyanga ezimbalwa.

Abantu abaningi bazohlolwa njalo ezinyangeni ezintathu kuya kweziyisithupha.Kodwa ungase uyidinge kaningi uma uyidingaukuhlela ingane, ukwelashwa kwakho kusanda kushintsha, noma unenkinga yokulawula amazinga kashukela egazini.

Futhi abanye abantu bazodinga ukuhlolwa izikhathi ezimbalwa, ngokuvamile kamuvangesikhathi sokukhulelwa.Noma udinga ukuhlolwa okuhlukile ngokuphelele, njengezinye izinhlobo ze-anemia.Ukuhlolwa kwe-fructosamine kungasetshenziswa esikhundleni salokho, kodwa kuyivelakancane kakhulu.

Ukuhlolwa kwe-HbA1c kusetshenziselwa ukuxilonga isifo sikashukela, kanye nokugcina iso emazingeni akho uma usengozini yokuba nesifo sikashukela (unei-prediabetes).

Ukuhlolwa kwesinye isikhathi kubizwa nge-hemoglobin A1c noma i-A1c nje.
