Join Village Medical for a Free Diabetes Webinar

According to the CDC, 37.3 million Americans have diabetes with 1 and 5 people unaware they have it. That is why Village Medical™ is using Diabetes Awareness month to help people learn, share, and spread knowledge about type 2 diabetes.

Type 2 diabetes is a health issue where the body has problems using sugar as fuel. This is mainly caused by two problems:

1. Your body does not produce enough insulin.

2. Your cells respond poorly to insulin and take in less sugar.

Both of the above can result in too much sugar in your blood and eventually lead to disorders of the circulatory, nervous and immune systems.

Losing weight is the first treatment recommended by the American Diabetes Association for those with Type 2 diabetes who are overweight. Having a healthy diet and exercise routine plays an important part in helping you to manage your diabetes. When diet and exercise aren’t enough to manage your diabetes, medications may be recommended as part of the overall management plan.

And we understand how hard it can be to manage diabetes on a daily basis. To help, we are offering a free virtual webinar, On the Road to Better Management. During this 1- hour webinar, our Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialists will provide you with the latest tools and strategies to put you in the driver's seat to live a fulfilled life while managing your diabetes. Click here for dates/times for the free webinar. Join us to learn more – it is free to join, and you can tune in from your phone, laptop or device.

In addition to the webinars, we have also created this free diabetes workbook to help you track and take control of your diabetes. It will help you keep track of:

• Important screenings and visits with your care team.
• Your test results.
• Your daily blood glucose results.

All of which will allow you to manage your diabetes and help you to live your best life.
