In this segment, Dr. Jaiwant Rangi explains that while patients with diabetes will likely remain on medication, the therapeutic focus should shift depending on the disease stage, referred to as a "protection window." Within this window, the primary objective is to maintain optimal health, prevent complications, and either halt or slow further disease progression. He emphasizes the importance of patients recognizing which window they are in, aligning their treatment plan accordingly, and customizing goals to match their current stage of diabetes.

Whatever it takes to give you the best life, but you will probably stay on medications. But our goal should be very different in each of those windows. In protection window, my goal is to keep you as healthy as possible, protect your body from any kind of complications of diabetes, and halt the progression or slow down the progression to further damage. So you got to know which window you are in. You got to know what should be your best plan and then go from there.
