Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death among individuals with diabetes. Over half of all diabetics also have high blood pressure. It is important for diabetics to not only manage their blood glucose levels, but to also manage their blood pressure and cholesterol.1

Fast Facts:

  • There are several risk factors for cardiovascular disease, these include cholesterol, being overweight, and of course smoking.2
  • Eating a healthy diet and getting exercise is beneficial to both diabetes and cardiovascular health.3
  • A diabetic nutritionist can help you plan a proper diet by helping you to make wise food choices.4
