November is Diabetes Month, a national observance designed to raise awareness about the risk factors, symptoms, types of diabetes, and the impact this disease has every day on millions of Americans. According to the American Diabetes Association®, Diabetes is the seventh leading cause of death in the U.S. During Diabetes Month, encourage employees to take control of their health, and for their families to encourage healthy habits such as eating healthier meals and exercising for 30 minutes a day, five times a week.
