Diabetes is such a debilitating disease because it is the gateway for many other dreaded diseases to get a foot hold in your body.

Yet, it is simple to prevent diabetes altogether through a proper diet like the Atkins diet or similar low carb diets.

Diabetes — sound the alert!

Heart Disease and Stoke: People with diabetes have extra reason to be mindful of heart and blood vessel disease. Diabetes carries an increased risk for heart attack, stroke and complications related to poor circulation.

The American Diabetes Association will “sound the alert” about diabetes on the 20th Annual American Diabetes Alert Day, Tuesday, March 25. American Diabetes Alert Day is a one-day call to action to encourage those at risk for developing type 2 diabetes or those with loved ones at risk to take the Diabetes Risk Test (http://www.diabetes.org/risk-test.jsp)and, if they score high, to schedule an appointment to see their health care provider.
