Your Holiday Diabetes Action Plan

The holidays are a time to gather with friends and family, which often means plenty of food and drink. People gain an average of 10 pounds between Thanksgiving and New Year’s Day. This is a strain on anybody’s health but can be particularly troubling for those with diabetes.

If you are living with diabetes, you can enjoy Thanksgiving dinner and holiday treats with everyone else, as long as you have a plan and stay on top of your blood sugar levels.

Follow these tips and be better prepared to celebrate the holidays.
