November Health Focus: Diabetes

November is Diabetes Awareness Month
and November 14th is World Diabetes Day.

Diabetes is more serious than most  people
realize, and is affecting more and more Americans
of all ages every day as a result or more sedentary
lifestyles and decreased nutritional value of our diets.

Processed sugar is in nearly every manufactured or
packaged food product on the market.

So be sure to get acquainted with the symptoms for diabetes,
such as
*Excessive thirst
* Frequent urination
* Night sweats
* Extreme hunger
* Light-headedness from blood sugar changes
* Great weight loss or weight gain
*Sores and bruises slow to heal
and others...

treatment, dietary information, and more,

It's easy to detect, easier to control, and doesn't
have to horribly alter your life. But the key
is early detection and control, before the
disease advances and harms your body more.

diagnosed diabetes, check out

I lost my adoptive father to diabetes,
my birth mother and birth grandmother suffered
from it, and I have struggled to keep it in check.
This is a serious business, and you have to stay
on top of it.
