7 Ways To Cross Diabetes Awareness Month Off The
Calendar
By: Katrina McKenn
  November is National
Diabetes Awareness month. Diabetes is the seventh leading cause of death (fifth
leading cause of death by disease) in America. According to the American
Diabetes Association Diabetes affects over 20 million Americans, that's 7% of
the population! Another 41 million Americans have pre-diabetes. That means out
of every 5 people at least one of them has either diabetes or pre-diabetes.
Chances are this includes you are someone you know. Every day approximately
2,200 people are diagnosed with diabetes, and the statistics getting worse each
year.
I believe we can reverse this trend through education and
awareness. Here are 7 things that we all can do to reverse the trend and
eliminate the need for Diabetes Awareness Month.
1. Talk to your doctor, if you have diabetes
or are at risk for diabetes you must find out as much as possible from your
doctor as soon as possible.
2. If you have diabetes, learn how to manage your blood
sugar. This is vitally important to reduce the risk of serious complications,
such as heart disease, blindness, kidney failure, and lower-extremity
amputations.
3. If you do not have diabetes, find out if you are
at-risk. Find out how you can reduce your risk factors, to prevent or postpone
a diagnosis.
4. Donate to the American Diabetes Association, directly or
sponsor someone in the Diabetes Walk or the Tour de Cure. You can participate
or volunteer for one of these events. Find out more from the American Diabetes
Association at http://www.diabetes.org
5. Maintain or obtain a healthy weight. If you have
diabetes, losing weight will improve your blood sugar control, and if you are
risk, it reduces your likelihood of becoming diabetic.
  6. Eat a healthy diet.
A healthy diet will also help keep your blood sugar stable and helps you
maintain a healthy weight. Moderating calories helps maintain or lose weight,
and controlling the amount of carbohydrates and when you eat them helps control
your blood sugar.
7. Exercise regularly. Exercise is very important in
controlling blood sugar and even preventing diabetes. Moderate exercise most
days of the week improves insulin resistance and assists in weight-loss or
maintenance. Exercise is vital tool for a long, healthy life whether you have
diabetes or not.
