TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR LIFE
Diabetes is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Over 24 million children and adults in the United States live with diabetes. Current trends indicate that one in three children born today will be diagnosed with diabetes in the future. Diabetes is becoming more common, and we must take massive action to combat the condition.

Exercise isn’t limited to running 5 miles or lifting weights at the gym. Any kind of moderate physical activity can be considered a healthy workout. You could go for a walk outside, dance, swim, or enjoy a bike ride with your family. By finding a workout you enjoy, you’re more likely to develop a healthy exercise routine. While exercise is important to help manage diabetes, make sure you talk to your physician before starting a new exercise routine if you have diabetes. Exercise can impact your blood sugar and cause it to drop or rise very quickly. Make sure you know the warning signs and have a plan to keep yourself safe while working out.
