Type 2 diabetes is a condition that can develop as people age and though it is a serious condition, it can be managed through diet and exercise.
Ellen and Michael Albertson of South Burlington recently wrote a book called The Diabetic and the Dietitian which details how to deal with diabetes. Michael was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and the book goes through how to deal with the condition and offers some meal plans.
“You could probably deal with [diabetes] with just diet,” said Melissa Pasanen, a contributor to the Savorvore Section of the Burlington Free Press. “But one of the big points is you need physical activity too.”
