More than 37 million Americans are living with diabetes. This month, we’re joining the American Diabetes Association to raise awareness, encourage screening, and support those at risk.
Here are 5 ways to help lower your risk of type 2 diabetes:
- Stay active, aim for 30 minutes of movement every day
- Choose more vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins
- Cut back on sugary drinks and sweets
- Maintain a healthy weight or work toward small, steady weight loss
- Get regular check-ups and ask your doctor about your blood sugar
Diabetes is serious, but you’re not alone. Small steps add up.
