November is Diabetes Awareness Month Today over 156 million adults and children have diabetes or are pre diabetic. Obesity increases the risk of diabetes (as well as heart disease, stroke and a number of cancers). My guests November 10 on Fearless Fabulous You! both address the topic of healthy eating to manage your weight.
