Diabetes Care & Educational Resources

Diabetes is one of the world’s biggest and most well known diseases. With it comes complications that affects the heart, the eyes, and even limbs. Some are severely hampered and become disabled as wounds do not heal properly; some would even go blind. If left alone, it can definitely be fatal. One of the most important things to note, however, is that Diabetes is a manageable illness - it can be suppressed with a healthy diet, medication and exercise. Cilenti and Kennedy stresses that early detection and proper education on Diabetes spells the difference between living normally and it becoming debilitating. This is where the Diabetes Foundation comes - for those that need aid, they help with financial aid and free medication. On one end of the fight against Diabetes, the foundation also holds programs that educates everyone on how Diabetes is prevented, treated and how it affects the human body.
