Wellness Wednesday: Let’s Talk Type 2 Diabetes
Did you know that Type 2 diabetes can often be prevented or managed with simple lifestyle changes?
It’s more common than you think — and with early action, it’s not a life sentence.
Know the signs:
Frequent thirst and urination
Fatigue
Slow healing of wounds
Unexplained weight loss
Healthy habits that help:
Walk 30 minutes a day
Reduce added sugar and processed carbs
Eat more fibre (like whole grains, lentils, greens)
Get regular check-ups
Even with cooler, rainy weather making it tempting to stay in — keep moving, eat smart, and stay mindful of your sugar levels.
