Creating a Better World for Those Who are Challegened Reducing Suffering and Prolonging Life Through Education & Peer Support

 

 

 

 

DIABETES IN THIS COUNTRY IS AN EPIDEMIC IN OUR CHILDREN according to the United States Center for Disease Control and Prevention.

Diabetes is a silent killer that can cause blindness, heart disease, kidney disease, amputation, loss of limb use, nerve damage and death for those who do not recognize its' symptoms and take action.

ADAPTING HAS CHOSEN TO FIGHT THIS DISEASE IN CHILDREN THROUGH EDUCATION FIRST WITH A SYSTEMATIC APPROACH UTILIZING A BROAD SPECTRUM OF COMMUNICATION VEHICLES IN EDUCATION.

WE WILL START WITH THE CHILDREN AND THEN WITH THE PARENTS AND OTHER RELATIVES- Remember, what Abe Lincoln said, " If you teach the children you do not need to teach the adults.?"

The ADAPTING approach will teach both together through various communication vehicles.

WE SHOW OTHERS HOW TO PREVENT THIS HORRIBLE DISEASE THROUGH RECOGNIZING ITS' SYMPTOMS AND KNOWING HOW TO AVOID TYPE 2 DIABETES WHEN POSSIBLE.

Think about it.!

How would you feel if your kids had diabetes and became blind, lost a limb or developed another deadly condition from diabetes?

After all some of the symptoms are very suttle.

Don't take chances with their future health and well-being.

Act today!

 

DIABETES (TYPE 2) CAN BE AVOIDED IN MANY CASES. OFTEN IT CAN BE REVERSED.

BY THE WAY, DIABETES CAN CAUSE CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE, THEREFORE, CERTAIN FOODS SHOULD BE AVOIDED-

Particularly, junk food such as chips, cookies, and ice cream, can negatively impact your kidney function. Of course, the key is good balance. While high-sugar and high-salt meals can negatively impact your kidneys, it does not necessarily mean that you must cut them out completely.
