Health Ministry Tips for April: April is National Minority Health Awareness and Alcohol Awareness Month. This Sunday's tip focuses on a problem common to our African American population: Diabetes. Many of us are diabetic and don't even know it because we have not had a blood sugar check in a very long time. If you are diabetic, are you adhering to your diet, exercising and controlling your weight? If not, decide to start now with your diabetes care. The consequences of not controlling your diabetes include amputations, kidney failure and even death. Remember, as you know better--DO BETTER. Be kind to yourself and treat YOU as the valuable vessel that God says you are. More later.
