Additionally, many young kids also go without any vegetables at all, the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, conducted by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found.
Salad Frostings is a slim squeezy container with bright, colorful swirls of ranch dressing.
2 tablespoons of Kraft’s ranch has 110 calories, 11 grams of fat and 290
milligrams of sodium. The same amount of Betty Crocker vanilla frosting has
has more calories — 140 – but less fat and sodium! (5 grams of fat and 70
milligrams of sodium).
“Kids will eat anything with frosting, right?” the
company states in a news release. “It’s a match made for dinnertime
bliss.”
Not everyone agrees with Kraft’s assessment — many responses
online are negative to this new marketing strategy:
“Shame on you, @KraftHeinzCo. Seriously?” @bguezzie
wrote on Twitter. “Relationships are built on trust, and no,
‘innocent lies’ are not a part of parenthood. No lies are innocent.”
“What the hell even? What made them think that promoting lying
to kids was a good idea?” another user, Minki Rex, asked.
However, a rep for Kraft insisted the firm was “seeing
overwhelmingly positive responses” to the campaign.
“It is meant to be a tongue-in-cheek way to connect with parents on something that they currently do to get their kids eat their greens.”
Diabetes Late Nite Inspired by Ricky Martin
We’re talking about ‘Diabetes & Pride’ with members of the LGBTQ+ community living with diabetes on June’s Diabetes Late Nite podcast with musical inspiration from Ricky Martin.
This year marks the 50th anniversary of Stonewall Uprising (June 29, 1969). It is widely considered to be the single most important event leading to the gay liberation movement.
Since Ricky Martin came out in 2010, he’s been a prominent voice for LGBT rights both in the U.S. and in his native Puerto Rico. Ricky Martin said, “I just wanna be free,” upon receiving GLAAD’s Vito Russo Award, which honors gay entertainers who promote equal rights. Martin opened up his life to Vanity Fair in its April 2012 issue and spoke candidly about his twins, Matteo and Valentino, and his longtime partner, Carlos Gonzalez.
As an openly gay man, Mr. Divabetic is honored to shine the spotlight on members from the LGBTQ+ community living with diabetes. Guests include Stephen Bernstein, Greg Rubin, Maria Salazar, Maya James and the Charlie’s Angels of Outreach.

Diabetes Late Nite is a fast-paced, full-filled hour of diabetes education and wellness advice that encourages listeners to “laugh a little, learn a lot.”
You’re not alone. The link between guilt and diabetes may derive from the social stigma and common misconception that diabetes is an easily preventable condition. Many Americans still believe type 1 is caused by eating too much sugar and that the sole cause of type 2 is obesity.
“It’s natural for people to feel like they’ve done something to bring it on,” says Susan Guzman, PhD, director of clinical education at the Behavioral Diabetes Institute in San Diego. “It’s common for people to look inward for some sort of causal event because it makes them feel more in control. But when it comes to diabetes, there are a lot of things out of our control.”
We’re celebrating Divabetic’s 8 Year Anniversary of Diabetes podcasting with musical inspiration from Patti Austin.
Grammy Award-winning Singer Patti Austin is in constant demand globally for live performances, thanks to a legacy of recordings that started in 1955, continued through the ‘60s with success as a teenage R&B star before establishing herself as a mainstay among jazz and soul audiences through her ‘70s recordings. By the ‘80s, Austin became known to the wider international audience as a result of the Grammy-nominated “Baby Come To Me” and “How Do You Keep The Music Playing”, her early ‘80s classic duets with James Ingram.
In New York, they referred to Patti as the “Queen of Studio” for her singing abilities. When she arrived on set to work for Randy and Michael Brecker, Patti met Luther Vandross for the first time. The moment created a lasting friendship.
“Another thing (besides music) that bonded me to Luther was our weight issues,” she said. The two dialed each other often. “When touring, if we were in the same city, we attended movies together.” “He would usually pick some silly movie like [Scary Movie]” she said, expanding on the personal side of their relationship in a loving, humorous way.
“I had type 2 diabetes,” says the former 285- pound singing sensation. “I had obesity-driven diabetes,” continued the now 140-pound Austin. To reach her new weight, Patti Austin had gastric bypass surgery and the result has been remarkable.
Guests include Poet Lorraine Brooks, Jill Weisenberger MS, RDN, CDE, CHWC, FAND, Chris Pickering co-founder of ‘The Betes Bros, Patricia Addie-Gentle RN, CDE, and Mama Rose Marie.
Throughout this podcast we will be featuring songs from ‘The Best Of Patti Austin’ album courtesy of SONY Music.
After finding his former boss, Luther Vandross in a coma on the floor and later feeling the media neglected giving enough attention to Luther’s diabetes, Max Szadek has fought for greater awareness of the disease through his organization Divabetic.

“As a gay man I can relate to the ‘shame’ and ‘blame’ many people experience with type 2 diabetes experience regarding their diagnosis,” says Max Szadek. “Claiming who I am as a gay man has helped me take charge of my own health issues. I hope this podcast will inspire others facing similar challenges in their diabetes self-care. You’ve got to love yourself to take charge of your health!”

ANSWER: The terms “diabetic peripheral neuropathy” or “diabetic neuropathy” refer to nerve damage as a result of diabetes. Peripheral neuropathy is a condition that primarily affects the arms and legs and causes numbness, loss of sensation, and pain, tingling, or burning sensations.
About 50% of people with diabetes have a form of nerve pain. The highest rates of neuropathy are seen in people who have had diabetes for at least 25 years.
Peripheral neuropathy is the most common complication of diabetes.

I know that coping with diabetes on a daily basis can not only be stressful but it can also be more time consuming especially in the morning. Sometimes you need a little ‘pick me up’ to get you through the day.
Self-pampering is a great way to reward yourself for being proactive about managing your diabetes and there’s no better way to treat yourself than by giving yourself a safe manicure!
I want to help you ‘Makeover Your Diabetes’ by sharing the best products in beauty/fashion, diabetes self-care and exercise to help you “GLAM MORE, FEAR LESS” with less stress this year!
For people with diabetes, it is vitally important that they learn to care for their nails. Your nails protect your fingers and toes from injury and trauma.

For people with diabetes, it is vitally important that they learn to care for their nails. Your nails protect your fingers and toes from injury and trauma.
When caring for the nails, take note if they look unusually pale or white. Pale looking nails could indicate anemia according to Health Status.
In some people with diabetes, the nails take on a yellowish hue. Often this coloring has to do with the breakdown of sugar and its effect on the collagen in nails. This kind of yellowing isn’t harmful. It doesn’t need to be treated.
But in certain cases, yellowing can be a sign of a nail infection. People with diabetes are more likely than those without diabetes to get a fungal infection called onychomycosis. This infection usually affects the toenails. The nails will turn yellow and become brittle.
By caring for the feet and nails carefully people with diabetes can often find problems early before such drastic measures must be taken.
Smith & Cult
One of Divabetic’s picks for the best Nail Polish for Diabetes is Smith & Cult. A classic red polish, free of eight hard-to-pronounce chemicals, poured into a chic gold-capped glass bottle that can double as bedside table decor! – what more can you ask for?!!! The red is a favorite, but all the shades prove ultra-high performance, meaning they’ll keep your speedy at-home manicure glossy and vibrant for more than two days.

Diabetes Late Nite is a fast-paced, full-filled hour of diabetes education and wellness advice that encourages listeners to “laugh a little, learn a lot.”
CNBC reports the number of new diabetes cases among U.S. adults keeps falling, even as obesity rates climb, and health officials aren’t sure why.
“The bottom line is we don’t know for sure what’s driving these trends,” said the lead author of the new report, Dr. Stephen Benoit of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
One reason explaining the drop off could be that the diagnostic threshold for diabetes was lowered in the late 1990s.
“We might have mined out a lot of the previously unrecognized cases” and so new diagnoses in the last several years are more likely to be actual new illnesses, said Dr. John Buse, a University of North Carolina diabetes expert.
Additionally the hemoglobin A1C blood test used to diagnose diabetes is much easier to use than previous tests that required patients to fast for 12 hours or to undergo repeated blood draws.
New federal data released Tuesday found the number of new diabetes diagnoses fell to about 1.3 million in 2017, down from 1.7 million in 2009.
Mr. Divabetic takes a ’50 Shades of Gray’ approach to talking about diabetes and aging during this lively hour of diabetes education and empowerment.
As you age, you may be most aware of your new gray hairs and wrinkles, but aging causes changes throughout the entire body.
It used to be said that having diabetes aged people an additional 20 years. Today, thanks to better tools for managing diabetes and preventing and treating its complications, people with diabetes have the opportunity to live longer than ever before.
However, managing diabetes in the golden years presents a variety of challenges, ranging from increased insulin resistance and weight gain to sexual health issues and depression.
Throughout the podcast we will be playing selected songs from Mariah Carey’s “Merry Christmas’ album courtesy of SONY Music.
Aging is inevitable — even botox can’t turn back the clock permanently. However, you do have a choice over how you’ll spend your twilight years. By doing everything you can to take care of your body and mind, you can help live a full, meaningful, and energetic life.
The happy healthcare host, Mr. Divabetic gets caught up in a murder mystery when he agrees to host the Red Tomato Carpet at the 6th Annual Bake Bethesda A Pie Contest at Central Farm Market in Bethesda, MD.

Cheryl Farley, Food as Medicine nutritionist shares answers to your nutrition questions on May’s Diabetes Late Nite podcast. LISTEN HERE.
During the podcast we asked her:
“Does smoked salmon carry the same dangers (and risks for cancer) as other processed meats?”
Here is Cheryl Farley’s answer: The latest research coming from some of the leading experts in Food as Medicine indicate that processed meats especially are highly carcinogenic! Smoked salmon really has its own set of issues. Salmon is very high in fat content and although it is high in Omega 3 fatty acids to me the bad outweighs the good. As mentioned on May’s Diabetes Late Nite interview the real culprit behind insulin resistance for people living with Type 2 diabetes and pre-diabetes is fat. Also, salmon is very high in sodium content. Another consequence of eating fish or any meat for that matter can be explained in the book The China Study by Dr. T. Colin Campbell, a landmark study on the relation between animal protein and cancer. If you choose to eat smoked salmon, I would make certain that it is organic, non-GMO and not farm raised. This has become another popular method to supply the ever-growing demand for fish is to raise them on farms, but it is a known fact that the environment is not clean. What we put into our mouths daily is either nourishing and feeding our cells and supplying vital nutrients to our body, or it is setting us up for sickness and eventually disease. Truly “Health is Wealth”.
Cheryl encourages people to eat “as close to the tree as possible” (a whole food plant-based diet). Why not try something that will feed and nourish your body? What have you got to lose, except your type 2 diabetes? 🙂

Cheryl Farleywas born in Baltimore, Maryland and moved at the age of 11 to California where her father managed health clubs for Jack Lalanne who was widely recognized for publicly preaching the health benefits of regular exercise and a good diet. Growing up in and around the health club environment and meeting Jack Lalanne as a young girl left an indelible impression on Cheryl’s about the importance of exercise to live a long, healthy life. By her late teens Cheryl was working in fitness facilities in California. Cheryl married her husband Dennis in 1986. Dennis gave up a career working for John’s Hopkins to focus on the mission of teaching people about how effective a healthy diet and a change of lifestyle can be in restoring health. Cheryl and Dennis together developed a deeper understanding of the dietary component to our health, the importance of good nutrition and how what we eat impacts not only our health, but our lives overall. They returned back to their home state of Maryland in 1986, and Cheryl became a passionate advocate for wellness, spreading the word of good nutrition wherever she could. Cheryl and Dennis started offering cooking classes in their local community knowing the importance of influencing people on how to prepare foods healthily and how food choices can change the lives of people who are sick. While in Maryland, Cheryl met Dr. Richard Hanson who owned a wellness center in Maine. At this time, they made the decision to leave their jobs in Maryland and work at this wellness center in Poland Maine. Dennis became the administrator and Cheryl the cook, also helping with the exercise programs. During the two years they were there, they were introduced to the Weimar Institute, a wellness center located on the west coast. Weimar is known for having a powerful impact on changing people’s lives.
Cheryl and Dennis were invited to participate in a reversing diabetes program in 1997. Cheryl gave the cooking class, which was an educational component to the 3-day seminar. The physicians involved with Weimar understood that food is vital in the restoration of health. Cheryl saw patient’s blood sugar drop within 48 hours. From their experience with Weimar, Cheryl and Dennis were invited to participate in additional reversing diabetes seminars over an 8-year period in Upstate New York, Maryland, North Carolina and Georgia. Participants saw their blood sugar drop and when they returned home and applied what they had learned; they experienced miraculous changes in their lives. Cheryl bonded with many of these people and she would get phone calls and emails from the participants following each seminar saying; “I’m off high blood pressure medications,” “I’m off my heart medications,” “No more Glucophage.” Some patients lost up to 30 pounds. Cheryl came to appreciate that most of us do not realize just what a treasure our health truly is until we don’t have it. Our lifestyle and diet catch up to us eventually. We are all such creatures of habit from the environment we are raised in. The foods we eat, the lifestyle we live, is generational. When people eat the foods Cheryl suggests, they realize not only how good they are, but also that they are delicious and nutritious. In addition to addressing diabetes, a similar healthy lifestyle, with a healthy, balanced diet can equally address other diseases such as hypertension, asthma and chronic heart disease. Cheryl plans to expand her programs to address these areas also.
From years of working at reversing type 2 diabetes seminars, Cheryl has realized that this information is so powerful and that this is such an important and relevant message; especially today where there is an epidemic of diabetes and obesity, she feels a moral obligation to get this information out to people. We all have choices to make in everything we do. We do not realize how powerful the decisions we make about our lifestyle are going to impact our overall health. Cheryl strives to get this message out to everyone who needs to know, recognizing it is vitally important not only in this country, but also worldwide. www.cherylfarley.com Recommended reading – The China Study by Dr. T Colin Campbell and Reversing Diabetes by Dr. Neal Barnard
