Tips and information for supermarket shopping launches the Diabetes Project's series of courses for healthy living with diabetes. In our first course the student will master navigating the supermarket while learning what makes food for diabetics simply a healthy food lifestyle. While many foods can be considered "Food for Diabetics", our course will teach the difference between healthy foods and foods that are best to avoid. Students will acquire the necessary knowledge to fully understand the impact that foods have on the blood sugar of people with diabetes. This course gives the knowledge necessary to incorporate smart food choices into a healthy lifestyle. The course does not dictate rules of good diabetes control but rather imparts the information that allow people to make choices that enable them to better manage their diabetes.
