Dining With Diabetes
The Penn State Extension Dining With Diabetes program helps people with type 2 diabetes identify and understand important information about managing and preventing this disease.
Learning that you have diabetes can be overwhelming at first. There are many new things to learn and it can be difficult to know where to start. In our program, registered Dietitians or Certified Diabetes Educators will lead discussions addressing:
- Important numbers you need to know
- Planning healthy meals
- Healthy food preparation
- Physical activity
