Another View on Health: Diabetes

Back in the day, as the saying goes, they called it "the sugar". But there is nothing sweet about the disease diabetes - it is serious, and if left untreated, deadly. It affects a disporportionate number of African Americans. The good news is that diabetes can be managed with diet, exercise, medication and a change in lifestyle. On the next Another View on Health, the Newby Family joins us to talk about diabetes - what it is, how to treat it, and how to live with it. Medical professionals Dr. Keith Newby, his brother Dr. James Newby, and his sister-in-law Olivia Newby, FNP-C, a certified diabetes educator, share their expertise and answer your questions about diabetes. Join us for the next Another View on Health, Friday, May 24 at noon on 89.5 WHRV-FM, or stream us on your computer at whrv.org.
