Total Nutrition Technology Holds Diabetes Management Workshop
CHARLOTTE, NC (October 14, 2014) - - Over the last several years, the prevalence of diabetes has increased, putting Charlotte right on the edge of the diabetes belt. As the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, diabetes is a growing problem and not managing the disease properly can lead to a great number of serious health problems. Total Nutrition Technology (TNT), a company specializing in helping people lose weight, manage their health and enhance their sports performance, is giving people living with diabetes the tools to manage the disease and live a healthy life through a 6-week Diabetes Management Workshop starting Tuesday, October 28, 2014 from 6:30 p.m. – 7:30 p.m. at Total Nutrition Technology’s University area location – 10130 Mallard Creek Road, Charlotte, NC 28262.
The workshop will be held each consecutive Tuesday and will cover the following topics:
- Understanding diabetes and its effect on the body
- Effectively managing blood sugar
- A healthy diet for blood sugar control and weight management
- Exercise recommendations
- Lab values: Which ones you need to know and what they mean
- Important questions to ask your doctor
“Almost 10 percent of our population has some form of diabetes,” said Annie Goldsmith, RD, LDN health educator with TNT. “Without proper management, diabetes can lead to serious health problems. However, while diabetes may be life altering, you can still live a normal, healthy life. Our goal is to teach people how to properly manage their diabetes and empower them with the knowledge and skills they need to prevent any complications down the road.”
TNT’s Diabetes Management Workshop will be led by Annie Goldsmith, RD, LDN and is $299 for the 6-week course, but is an eligible Blue Cross and Blue Shield covered program with certain insurance plans.
