At least 15% of US adults have diabetes, and more than 1/3 have pre-diabetes, about 1 in 10 of whom will develop full-blown diabetes within a year. Though managing diabetes is often the goal presented by medical professionals, diabetes can be prevented and for many people even reversed by diet and lifestyle changes. This interactive, 2-hour class introduces the knowledge, tools, and lifestyle strategies that help individuals reduce their risk of developing diabetes, and to feel better and reduce the need for medication even after it has been diagnosed. Your instructor is physician Dr. Nora E. Hanke, who will present information from the Physicians Committee’s Food For Life curriculum’s Diabetes Initiative series. We will have discussion, view an educational video, there will be cooking demonstrations, and everyone gets to taste dishes that help us prevent and fight diabetes. Participants go home with written materials including the recipes.

The intended audience are people wishing to prevent or reverse diabetes, and their family and friends. Even those with type 1 diabetes can benefit from this class. All materials included!
