Diabetes Month

November is national Diabetes Month. Nearly 26 million Americans are battling diabetes, several right here at Springfield Partners. It is important for everyone to be aware of the complications surrounding diabetes and the steps necessary to maintain health.

The National Diabetes Education Program (NDEP) provides information at http://www.yourdiabetesinfo.org/. There are tips on living with the disease, steps to prevent it, ways to recognize risk and much more. NDEP is also on Facebook with daily advice. This information is for everyone. Eating well and exercising moderately is good advice for a healthy lifestyle.

NDEP is sponsored by the National Institutes of Health and by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
