Dietary habits	- Fruit juices are not as healthy as many people think: they contain lots of sugar and calories. Try to consume fruit juices as infrequently as possible, eat fruit instead! - Don’t drink any soda today. Choose water, or tea or coffee without any sugar instead.
Physical activity	- Take the stairs instead of the elevator, wherever you are. Or take the elevator to one floor below and take the last stairs. All steps count! - People with a healthy weight are advised to be physically active for at least 30 min a day. People who are overweight are advised to have at least 60 min of physical activity each day.
Prevention of Hypoglycaemia	- Instruct your spouse, family, neighbour, colleague or a friend on how they should act when you have a hypoglycaemic event. - Do you have nocturnal hypoglycaemic events? Ask your doctor whether it is advisable to adjust your insulin dose.
Glucose variability	- Never inject insulin into the tough skin of insulin-induced lumps; because of slower absorption there, this may lead to blood glucose fluctuations. - When you have high blood glucose levels, it is important to drink a lot (1.5–2 l sugar free beverages per day) and to take your medication properly.
