Highlights:
Attend a free seminar hosted by Rewa Hazanat, M.D. and learn about the mystery of diabetes. Although both genetics and environmental factors appear to play a role, lifestyle considerations such as obesity and lack of exercise are risk factors that you have more control over. Type 1 diabetes accounts for nearly 5-10 percent of diabetes, while Type 2 is nearing epidemic proportions, due to an increased number of older americans, and a greater prevalence of obesity and sedentary lifestyles. Learn the tell-tale signs, symptoms, and what you can do to reduce your risk through prevention and treatment. A light supper will be provided with advance registration.
