GET TO KNOW YOUR BLOOD SUGAR

Diabetes involves problems with a hormone called insulin. Normally insulin helps control our blood sugar levels, moving it from our bloodstream into our cells to be used for energy. Diabetes can lead to long term complications such as artery, kidney, nerve and eye damage. Learn ways to prevent and manage diabetes through healthy eating.

TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR HUNGER

How you eat is just as important as what you eat. Intuitive eating can help you break free from the on-and-off cycle of dieting and learn to eat mindfully without guilt. Approach your eating habits while becoming more aware of how and when you eat.

RETHINK YOUR DRINK

Take a minute and think about what you drink in a typical day. Unless you are a true water lover, you may be getting some extra, unneeded calories through sweetened soft drinks, sodas, iced tea, coffee, juice, and energy and sports drinks. In fact, sugary drinks are the number one source of added sugars in our diet.
