April’s health and wellness update focuses on diabetes. Did you know there are currently over 34 million Americans (over 10% of the population) living with diabetes? It is definitely not something to be taken lightly; over time, diabetes can affect your blood vessels, eyes, heart and kidneys, just to name a few.
Do you know the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes? One of these two types can go unnoticed and develops gradually over an extended period of time. What is considered a normal range for an A1C test? Risk factors for diabetes include being overweight, living a sedentary lifestyle, and family history. Naturally, early detection and living a healthy lifestyle is key to managing this disease, or possibly avoiding it altogether.
