In general, it is preferable to administer the injection 15 minutes before meals. Individuals with elevated blood glucose levels must pay special attention to their diet—avoiding foods high in sugar and fat. They should consume more vegetables and maintain a light, balanced diet. Moderately incorporating whole grains and coarse cereals can promote gastrointestinal motility and support regular bowel movements. Additionally, maintaining a positive mood and engaging in appropriate physical exercise regularly helps strengthen the body’s resistance.
