Diabetes & Prediabetes
More than 37 million Americans live with diabetes, and another 96 million have prediabetes—many without realizing it (CDC, 2024). Nutrition plays a central role in blood sugar management and prevention, but eating well doesn’t have to feel restrictive. Small, balanced changes can make a meaningful difference in how you feel day to day.
