Dining with Diabetes class offered in September – Lock Haven Express

August 1st, 2017 2:42 am

JERSEY SHORE Learning that you have diabetes can be overwhelming at first. There are many new things to learn and it can be difficult to know where to start. Dining with Diabetes is a program offered by Penn State Extension.

It will help you to understand some of the most important things you need to know about how to manage your diabetes.

Extension Educators will lead discussions addressing important numbers you need to know, planning healthy meals and physical activity.

Classes are offered weekly for four weeks, with a three-month follow-up class. Each class offers food demonstrations and tastings, physical activity, ideas to take home, and discussions regarding important information to help you manage your diabetes. Lab tests will be offered to measure A1c.

In addition to class handouts and test results, participants also receive a variety of resources, including a complete collection of Dining with Diabetes recipes. If you have been told that you have pre-diabetes or Type 2 diabetes, you will want to attend this class.

The class meets at the Jersey Shore Senior Center located on 641 Cemetery St. in Jersey Shore from 12:30-2:30 p.m. in September. There is a $5 fee for the series. For more information or to register: http://extension.psu.edu/health/diabetes, 570-433-3040, or contact Brenda at the Senior Center (570-601-9591).

Deadline to register is Sept. 1.

The Pennsylvania State University encourages qualified persons with disabilities to participate in its programs and activities. If you anticipate needing any type of accommodation or have questions about the physical access provided, please contact Laurie Welch in advance of your participation or visit.
