As we close out the year 2025, we reflect on one of our favorite days of the year- the Swing for Diabetes Annual Golf Tournament! We had an incredible turnout this year and were able to raise more than $25,000! This money will be used to provide diabetes education and supplies to those who may need assistance. We are so blessed to have a such a generous community around us!

A huge thank you to our sponsors, golfers, and longtime supporters of the 17th annual tournament!

Did you know that the American Diabetes Association has a recipe website where you can find delicious glucose friendly recipes, plan your weekly meals, and even create a grocery list!

You can try some new fun things like this Latin Baked Chicken and Kale Apple Slaw! Add some beans for extra fiber and protein and you’ve got yourself a delicious well balanced dinner!

Did you know most Americans eat less than HALF the amount of fiber that’s recommended?? Fiber is the key to amazing gut health, blood sugar regulation, and feelings of fullness and satisfaction with meals! It can seem daunting to meet the 25-38 g fiber/day recs, BUT we’ve got a hack for you! Try a fiber focused smoothie for breakfast! We promise you don’t taste the beans 😅

Raspberries, Blueberries, Greek Yogurt, Milk, Banana, Flaxseed, Avocado, and White Navy Beans all come together to create a delicious 16 g fiber power smoothie 🤌
