Diabetes, Heart Disease and Stroke!!

Diet Drinks Linked to Heart Problems, Stroke

Here is another concern for our patients with Diabetes! Many patients switch to Diet drinks to help with the sugar.  Unfortunately, this rarely works and can frequently make the problems worse.  So what do you do?  Start by swapping out one diet drink for a glass of water.  Do this every week until you are down to one or less per week!  You will feel better.
Other things that you can do with diabetes:
1. Check your feet every day!!
2. No bare feet!!
3.  If you notice any foot sores or wounds come in to see your Podiatrist or Primary Care Physician Immediately!
