1 IN 3 AMERICANS HAVE PREDIABETES. MOST DON'T KNOW THEY HAVE IT.
According to CDC estimates, more than 37 million Americans are living with diabetes. Roughly 90–95% have Type 2 diabetes, a serious chronic condition that can lead to heart disease, chronic kidney disease, and vision loss. An additional 96 million are headed down the same path with prediabetes, and 8 out of 10 of them don’t even know they have it.
The good news is Type 2 diabetes can be prevented and reversed with basic lifestyle changes. In this free webinar, best-selling author and physician Neal Barnard, MD, will cut through the confusion about diet and diabetes and present proven, drug-free strategies for preventing and reversing this dangerous disease.
Neal Barnard, MD, FACC, is an adjunct professor of medicine at the George Washington University School of Medicine and president of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine. He has led numerous research studies investigating the effects of diet on diabetes, body weight, and chronic pain, including a groundbreaking study of dietary interventions in Type 2 diabetes, funded by the National Institutes of Health, that paved the way for viewing Type 2 diabetes as a potentially reversible condition. He has authored more than 20 books and is the editor in chief of the Nutrition Guide for Clinicians.
