DIABETES
MADE SIMPLE:
Learn and Earn
The program offers free one-on-one consultations to those seeking more guidance.
Participants are offered free use of the whole body sonic vibration machines for exercise. 10 minutes on a machine is equal to an hour of aerobic exercise. Go to www.TheJiggleJoint.com for details.
Class attendees “earn” much more than their lifestyle kits. They receive a workbook complete with copies of the PowerPoint slide programs, handouts and educational materials. Snack bags with nutritional information and door prizes round out the meetings.
At the beginning and end of each 12-week session, participants may choose to have their A1c tested to track the results of applying what they have learned. The success stories are impressive.
There’s nothing funny about a diagnosis of diabetes, however, our programs are sprinkled with cartoons, sayings and humor to lighten the seriousness of the messages and making the sessions fun.
Learn and Earn students are taught the use of glucose meters and blood pressure cuffs, what the numbers should be and how to record the results. The earned lifestyle kits are filled with tools to help them track their progress when they apply what they have learned!
