Traveling with Diabetes

Traveling with Diabetes

Whether your vacation plans involve staying close to home or crossing the globe, put as much thought into protecting your health while traveling as choosing your destination. Plan ahead and know what to pack. Properly prepare for your flight, train, or car ride. Move around every one to two hours to increase comfort and reduce risk for blood clots, and tell at least one person traveling with you about your diabetes.
