We all know diabetes takes daily effort.
From checking blood glucose to managing food, exercise and medication, it's a lot. And some days, it can feel like too much. When that happens, it may be a sign of diabetes burnout.

You might notice:
🔸 Feeling exhausted by the daily demands of diabetes
🔸 Avoiding blood glucose checks or appointments
🔸 Losing motivation to keep up with management
🔸 Feeling frustrated, helpless or “over it”
🔸 Worrying less about long-term health outcomes

👉 Burnout is not uncommon and recognising it early is the first step to getting the right support. Learn more about it here: https://ow.ly/6AC650Xv9Xf

This week is skin cancer awareness week. ☀️

Sadly, around 2000 Australians will die from this disease this year, and it is estimated that almost twice as many men as women will die from melanoma this year alone.

To help prevent skin cancer make sure you book in for a yearly skin check with your GP and remember the 5 sun safe words:

👕 SLIP on a shirt
🧴 SLOP on some sunscreen
🤠 SLAP on a hat
⛱ SEEK shade
😎SLIDE on some sunglasses

Today is World Diabetes Day. 🩵

Diabetes is a chronic condition that affects over half a billion people worldwide and requires daily self-care to manage. While type 1 diabetes cannot be prevented or cured, it can be managed with insulin and healthy lifestyle choices that can reduce complications.

Type 2 diabetes can be delayed or even prevented by:

✅ maintaining a healthy weight
🏃 regular physical activity
🥦 making healthy food choices
🩸 managing blood pressure
⚖️ managing cholesterol levels
🚬 not smoking.
