The rate of diabetes in the U.S. increased from 500,000 cases in 1980 to over 1.8 million in 2010. It lowers the life expectancy up to 15 years and increases the risk of cardiovascular disease by 2-4 times. Even our children aren't immune, as 33% of them will become diabetic. This class takes a serious look at both prevention and control of blood sugar issues. Select either the morning or evening session.
