Diabetes will impact 1 in 10 in NL
Learn what it is like to have diabetes for a day and gain a better understanding on this condition that is estimated to affect over 1 in 10 of us in the next 10 years. We join Kevin Peters founder of the Diabetes for a Day Foundation to learn more about why he has become a fierce advocate for diabetes education and research.
We then setup a diabetes testing clinic on Water Street and the results might shock you!
We finish up with a workout with Gill Whelan from Whelan Wellness and learn how exercise is a vital part of managing diabetes.
With 35% of Newfoundlanders and Labradorians with diabetes or pre-diabetes its a condition we all need to know about. What would your results be if you got tested? Maybe its worth finding out!
