RELEVANT INFORMATION
MADE BY PROFESSIONALS
All the procedures and advice in the SENDO DIABETES app have been developed and validated by our biomedical team, led in their different areas by qualified professionals with extensive experience in the areas of Medicine, Human Nutrition and Sports Science.
NUTRITION MODULE
All the information and advice that appears in the Nutrition module of the SENDO DIABETES app has been developed and validated by our biomedical team, following the recommendations of prestigious institutional bodies.
The calculation of the Kcal requirements was carried out according to the modified Harris-Benedict equation.
For more information, see the following link..
The nutritional recommendations for Kcal distribution and immediate principles structure are based on the procedures published by the American Diabetes Association.

SPECIAL DIETS
To ensure accuracy in the classification of foods for the preparation of special diets (gluten-free, vegetarian, vegan or lactose-free), our team has relied on the food classification of the prestigious International Network of Food Data Systems (INFOODS).
For more information, see the following link.
The characteristics of the special diets are as follows:
VEGETARIAN
Excludes foods of animal origin, except eggs and milk.
VEGAN
Excludes any food of animal origin.
GLUTEN FREE
Excludes any food containing wheat, barley, rye or triticale.
LACTOSE FREE
Excludes any food containing milk and milk products.
TRAINING MODULE
All our physical exercise advice and guidelines have been programmed and validated by our biomedical department on the basis of the main international guidelines on exercise and diabetes.
The data collected by the application on glycaemia and glycosylated haemoglobin are not used to prescribe exercise or nutritional guidelines, but are only offered as graphical information on the evolution of these parameters, both for the end user and their doctor.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Consult your doctor before following the recommendations in this app and before making any clinical decisions.
