November is Diabetes awareness month and World vegan month. 💚

Good morning everyone,

November is a special month for awareness because it is diabetes awareness month and World vegan month it is also work vegan day and the international diabetes day is the 14th of Nov.

And linking the 2 together there was an article in yesterdays Independent that a vegan diet can help to reverse type 2 diabetes and reduce obesity, which has got to be good news as obesity and type 2 diabetes are becoming an epidemic.

Here's a link to the article and both awareness months:

independent.co.uk/life-styl...

beyondtype1.org/diabetes-aw...

vegansociety.com/take-actio...

To me this reinforces the need for a healthy balanced diet that works for 'us' and how we as a society should look at things more objectively as obesity is a modern problem caused by poor nutritional advice and choices. 😊

Good morning Hidden

Amazing to think it's November already - I'm wondering where the time has gone. Great to know that November is a special month for Awareness of Diabetes and also that it's World Vegan Month.

Wishing everyone a great month, and I will hope to look at those links over the weekend.
