If you’re among the 800,000 Ohioans diagnosed with diabetes — or if you suspect you may be one of the estimated 200,000 who has diabetes but doesn’t know it — make plans to attend “Dining with Diabetes.”

 

Greene County Extension is presenting this three-session class, held at 6:00 p.m. -8:00 p.m. on May 2, 9, 23 and 30 at the Extension office, 100 Fairground Road, Xenia, Ohio.  Melanie Hart, Family and Consumer Educator, and by Tonya Lively, Registered Dietitian, from the Greene County Public Health will lead the sessions.

 

Participants will learn about signs of diabetes and possible complications, and ways they can manage the condition, including simple steps to control portions and the importance of getting regular exercise. In addition, the presentations will include a healthy food cooking demonstration each week, food tastings, and additional recipes.
