Diabetes Alert Day

Diabetes Alert Day

March 22, 2011 is Diabetes Alert Day!

American Diabetes Association's Diabetes Alert Day is held every year on the fourth Tuesday of March to call attention to diabetes and to encourage everyone to find out if they are at risk. While diabetes is often a hereditary condition, it is still possible to develop diabetes even if you have no known history of it in your family. In addition, type 2 diabetes is often preventable through regular medical checkups and a healthy lifestyle.

Find out if you are at risk by taking the Type 2 Risk Assessment and then read more below about what you can do to prevent or manage type 2 diabetes.
