  November is Diabetes Awareness Month, and while I think we’re all pretty aware of what diabetes is, what you need to know is that it’s spiraling out of control in the US (and many other countries).

Could you have diabetes in the making?

Could you have diabetes in the making?

Contrary to popular belief, rarely does a person wake up one day and POOF! they suddenly get struck with a disease that comes out of nowhere.  Even though learning that you have a disease can be shocking, trust me, it’s no surprise to your body.  Disease is created over time, step by step, as long as you continue to provide the right conditions for it to flourish.  And nowhere is this truer than with Type 2 diabetes
