Health Matters is a weekly radio show sponsored by the Medicine Center Pharmacy on WHBC 1480 AM in Canton, Ohio. This episode pharmacists Brad White and Paul White discuss diabetes management with Mechelle Metzgar, RN, Diabetes Educator with Aultman Hospital.

If you are one of the more than 29 million Americans with diabetes, then you probably know this chronic condition can increase your risk for developing serious complications, including heart disease and stroke, high blood pressure, blindness, and kidney and nervous system diseases.  However, proper diabetes management can delay or even prevent the onset of complications, allowing you to live a healthy, productive life.  

If you or a loved one have insulin-dependent Type 1diabetes, the more common Type 2, or pregnancy-induced gestational diabetes, today’s show will discuss positive lifestyle changes that will benefit your health now and in the future.

Thanks for listening today! We’d like to remind our listeners, if you suspect you have a medical issue, please contact your healthcare provider. Thanks to our sponsors Cleveland Clinic Mercy Hospital, Studio Arts & Glass, Jenior Appraisals and LIquidations. As always, we thank our listeners for joining us on Health Matters with the Medicine Center Pharmacy. Have a healthy week and we’ll see you again next Friday right here on News Talk 1480 WHBC.
