Diabetes Prevention
Diabetes was one of the first diseases described by the ancient Egyptians. But what once was rare, is now the 7th leading cause of death in the US, and results in a 10-year loss of life-expectancy upon diagnosis. But if you’re at risk of getting the disease or have been diagnosed with prediabetes, diabetes type 2 can be prevented. It takes some serious lifestyle changes, but the benefit is well worth the effort.
