November is Diabetes Awareness Month

These two guides on type 1 and type 2 diabetes, developed by Diabetes Quebec, offer practical information on managing the disease, such as diet, physical activity, and self-monitoring of blood sugar, and also include a list of support resources.

Pick up your free copy at the Neuro Patient Resource Centre in Room 354.
