Friends and Fitness Enthusiasts,
Today, March 22, is Diabetes Alert Day. There are 25.8 million people in America with diabetes; it contributed to the death of 231,404 people in 2007. Adults with diabetes have heart disease death rates about 2 to 4 times higher than adults without diabetes. The American Diabetes Association has created a test that takes less than 3 minutes to know if you're at risk for Type II Diabetes.
Type II Diabetes can be prevented with regular exercise, decreased weight loss, and healthy eating habits. Exercise has an insulin-like effect on the body and can help regulate sugar for diabetics. You can find out more here.
In health,
Lauren
