Cover Story: Current diabetes guidelines require numerous healthcare resources that are not easily accessible in rural areas, including various physician specialties, dietitians, certified diabetes educators, and a built environment consisting of hospitals, pharmacies, emergency care clinics, gyms, grocery stores, high speed internet, and diabetes prevention and diabetes self-management education and support programs. In addition, intensive lifestyle intervention weight loss programs require resources that are not readily available in rural areas. This leaves rural physicians and other rural healthcare professionals in a dilemma. With this in mind, some practical starting points are offered for rural physicians to help address the nutritional health of people with diabetes in rural areas. View this paper
