Diabetes

diabetes awareness

We are about to enter into a month where holidays, family time, and delicious foods and desserts are going to be a part of that celebration. This time of the year is looked forward to by many but this is also a time when control over our health could be diminished. It is very important that we have the ability to create that balance of enjoyment and monitoring. The YMCA has provided great information below on prevention, monitoring, and resources for anyone out there. Please take a look below and more up-coming information in the weeks to come. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!
