Healthy Monday: Deter Diabetes

Diabetes is becoming an increasingly deadly problem for adults and youth alike. You can reduce your risk for diabetes by being physically active, eating more fiber (vegetables, fruits, beans, whole grains, nuts, and seeds), consuming 100% whole grains over refined grains, and maintaining a healthy weight.
 
Make at least one small goal for each day this week that incorporates the above guidelines. For example, schedule in a 30-minute exercise session, or make a whole grain, fiber-rich meal. By focusing on your health earlier, you can prevent the negative consequences of diabetes.
