Defeat Diabetes Month
Monday, July 23rd, 2018
Defeat Diabetes Foundation (DDF) is on a mission to save children and their families from the pain of diabetes by empowering them with the tools to prevent diabetes or its complications.
THE CHALLENGE
An increasingly industrialized, globalized and urbanized world has led to the spread of processed and refined foods and sedentary lifestyles. These conditions are the principal culprits for the rise of conditions like Obesity and related diseases such as Type 2 Diabetes.
THE SOLUTION
By recognizing the unnatural and unhealthful ways so many billions of people now live, individuals can take conscious action in order to preserve their own health, the health of their loved ones, the health of their communities, and the health of the environment.
Through a combination of a healthful and balanced diet based on whole and fresh foods, and living lives full of activity and mindfulness, diabetes can be stopped before it starts. Take our screening test to better understand your risk for developing diabetes. Learn more about individual risk factors, and the sustainable solutions for limiting these risks. Healthful eating, active and mindful lifestyles and a conscious approach to dietary and consumer choices will help to ensure the health and preservation of your body and mind, and of the planet that we all share.
