Are You at Risk for Diabetes?
The NYTimes blog on health often has some interesting bits in it. Recently, a piece outlined the "11 Best Foods You Aren't Eating" (and in fact I'm not, with the exception of a little blueberry action). But I also recommend their post yesterday on diabetes. A recent study shows that more than 1 in 4 Americans is either diabetic or in a pre-diabetic stage. Included is a simple and brief questionnaire to help you evaluate your risk level. Remember to answer all the questions honestly... unlike when you get asked about how many fruits and vegetables you are eating, when you are clearly lying through your teeth.
