Aarp Living With Diabetes

An estimated 18.2 million people in the united States have diabetes. If you've just been diagnosed with the disease-or you know a friend or family member who has-you're probably eager to absorb as much accurate and up-to-date information about diabetes as you can. Living with Diabetes explains how people with this prevalent but little-understood condition can enjoy full, active, satisfying lives. In these pages you will find a complete education in all aspects of diabetes: its chemical causes, its physical consequences and its emotional challenges. You'll also discover abundant real-world advice, including new oral alternatives to injected insulin, long-term complications to be aware of, and simple but basic lifestyle changes that can blunt the effects of the disease.AARP Staff is the author of 'Aarp Living With Diabetes ', published 2007 under ISBN 9781402730122 and ISBN 1402730128.
