November is here, and it's National Diabetes Awareness Month! 🩸💊

Let's talk about diabetes: it's a chronic condition that influences how your body processes food for energy, often resulting in elevated blood sugar (glucose) levels.

Uncontrolled diabetes can lead to serious health complications, including obesity, heart disease, vision issues/ blindness, kidney diseases, cognitive decline, cancer and neuropathy.

Type 2 diabetes is strongly associated with lower performance on multiple domains of cognitive function and with structural abnormalities of the brain. Also, Type 2 diabetes and hypertension overlap in the population. In many subjects, development of diabetes is characterized by a relatively rapid increase in plasma glucose values.

Did you know that almost 11% of adults are living with diabetes, and shockingly, half of them are unaware of their condition? Awareness is the first step to solving the problem.

When was the last time you checked for diabetes? Do you have friends or family members managing diabetes? Some people have pre-diabetes for years, before they are diagnosed with diabetes. That would have been the ideal time to correct your diet and lifestyle.

If you have pre-diabetes or diabetes, or the other associated health concerns, we may be able to help you. You can turn the clock and reverse many more conditions than you may realize, with healthy nutrition and lifestyle!
