7 Things To Do TODAY To Help Prevent Diabetes

November is National Diabetes Month. Not only do we want to stay well ourselves, but we want our clients to do so also! You might know there are two kinds of diabetes. Those with Type 1 aren’t able to make any insulin, and it’s thought to be an autoimmune disorder. Also called juvenile diabetes, the symptoms may appear in childhood or later and develop very quickly. Only about 5% of diabetics are Type 1. Those with Type 2 diabetes create enough insulin but don't process it properly. Type 2 appears over a period of time, and sometimes people who have it aren’t aware of it. Risk factors include excess weight and inactivity, so you can take steps (sometimes literally!) to prevent it.

Healthy Aging

A fun topic to write about! No one really wants to think about aging… but on the other hand, it’s better than the alternative. Keeping your back safe is definitely a solid part of healthy aging, but there are lots of other ideas as well. It’s not just physical health that counts, but mental and emotional health as well. If you treat yourself well, both as a young adult and as you get older, you’ll find that there are great benefits to old age. Don’t knock experience and wisdom, because they’re excellent teachers and there’s only one way to attain them. As Spock from Star Trek would have it: live long and prosper.
