People with diabetes are at higher risk for developing kidney disease, and prevention is the key. Two diabetes experts join us to talk about what people with diabetes need to know about kidney disease - the numbers to watch, early signs and symptoms, what to know about food, and more.

That's why it's important to talk to your loved ones about your diabetes diagnosis and how it affects your life. It can help you surround yourself with a more supportive and encouraging environment. To help us better understand your unique experiences and struggles with diabetes, the national nonprofits Divabetic and Diabetes Sisters are partnering on the first-ever survey for women with diabetes on love and relationships. This survey, titled "Love Across All Life Stages of Diabetes," allows you to share your thoughts and experiences with us so we can create more meaningful programming and resources to serve you. Please take a few moments out of your day to participate in this survey. Your input can make a difference in the lives of other women living with diabetes.

On this week's episode of True To Your Heart presented by Amarin, we are discussing cardiovascular health among minority communities. Ron Jaworski gets a chance to sit down with Dr. Kenton Forte, an Assistant Clinical Professor at SUNY in Buffalo, who has been practicing internal medicine at the Heart Beat Center of Western New York for over 22 years. Together they talk about how different social determinants such as education, housing, stress and more can impact your overall health as a person. Did you know 80% of a human's health is determined by nonclinical factors? The social determinants of health are very important in terms of your everyday environment from school to nutrition to where you live. It's about prevention rather than intervention! Learn firsthand from Dr. Forte some of the different preventative measures you can take to safeguard your health and your future through understanding the contributing factors behind cardiovascular disease. He also discusses exercise plan recommendations and how they correlate with the proper diet! Also, hear about the work he is doing with the Greater Buffalo United Accountable Care Organization to bring awareness about heart health to minority communities. Later on the show, Ron will be speaking with the CEO of Diabetes Sisters, Anna Norton!

They create opportunities for peer support and education with a goal for women to form a special bond and freely share information, helpful tips, and stories of hope.

Original air date: October 14, 2016 Today begins one of my favorite times of the year.  Every year, Diabetes Hands Foundation sponsors the Big Blue Test.  Now until November 14 (World Diabetes Day), you and your loved ones, plus anyone else you know, are encouraged to get moving.  And log the results.  And help diabetes groups doing amazing work to build community and help others. Here’s how it works: first, check your blood glucose.  Not living with diabetes?  Skip this step.  Then get out and get moving for 14 to 20 minutes or more.  You can walk, run, swim, bike, play badminton, ride a Big Wheel, whatever.  Then do another BG check (or skip it if you don’t live with diabetes) and log the results at BigBlueTest.org.  Or make it easy on yourself and download the Big Blue Test app on your iPhone or Android device, and do the same. For the next month, every Big Blue Test logged will result in a $3.00(US) donation, split evenly among three wonderful diabetes non-profits:   Diabetes Sisters   We Are Diabetes   Riverside Community Diabetes Collaborative   Three fantastic organizations providing help, education, and support to those living with or at risk of living with diabetes.   Today, Mike Lawson, Senior Director of Programs and Marketing for Diabetes Hands Foundation, joins me to talk everything Big Blue Test, including a little about this year’s grantees, the goals for this year, and a new way for exercise groups to get involved in the Big Blue Test initiative.  Have a listen.
