Episode Overview
Hey everyone! Over the next two weeks, we’re diving into Type 2 Diabetes. 13% of the adult population is diabetic, and 90-95% of those cases are Type 2. In addition, one-third of the US population is prediabetic, meaning their health markers are getting dangerously close to a diabetes diagnosis. Half of those with a prediabetes diagnosis will develop Type 2 Diabetes within the next 5 years.
So this stuff is important!
Today we’re talking with Jen’s sister Janelle, a Registered Nurse and very recently diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes. Join us as we discuss what Type 2 diabetes is, dispel some myths, and help you assess your own risk factors.
