Part 3 of this mini-series with Mindy focuses on diabetes. Both Mindy and I have people close to us who have been impacted by diabetes and are passionate about sharing information to reduce the likelihood of developing diabetes. 

 

Mindy’s career has focussed on helping those with diabetes overcome the disease and put it into remission when possible. We’ll be discussing how the food you eat, your lifestyle choices, and environmental factors can impact your chances of developing diabetes and what you can do to live a healthy lifestyle and minimize the possibility of developing the disease.
