Health Tip: Don't Deny Your Diabetes
By HealthCast on June 22, 2011
“Not me” is a common response to a recent diagnosis of diabetes, the American Diabetes Association says.
But ignoring your illness and refusing active treatment can do nothing but make your condition worse, the association says.

- Seek the help of a diabetes educator or registered dietician.
- Get family and friends involved in keeping you motivated.
