Confused about Long Term Care & Diabetes?

Most diabetics enter a nursing home due to diabetes related complications, such as amputations, blindness, kidney failure, heart conditions, etc., rather than the disease itself.  These complications often require professional medical attention, and assistance, that is no longer viable at home, by family, caregivers, or friends, and is beyond their capacity to self-manage.

DDF Announces Martial Arts Defeat Diabetes®  Community Action Project

Historic Curriculum for Martial

Arts Schools

about Diabetes Awareness

 

 

DDF has developed a historic health curriculum for Martial Arts schools focusing on diabetes awareness and prevention. The program is the result of a unique collaboration between DDF and THE 100, spearheaded by Martial Arts Master-Teacher Tom Callos.
 
Students of Martial Arts Schools are primarily children and young adults and this program is the first of its kind forum for delivering this vital, and potentially life-saving, knowledge to young people. The curriculum includes information about the disease, the risk factors, warning signs, complications and ways to prevent the disease through attention to nutrition and physical activity.
 
The Martial Arts schools will also be able to share this crucial information within their respective communities through local schools, youth groups and other civic organizations. The net result will be a visible and active resource for basic diabetes information, and the positive and healthy advantages of a martial arts education for both youngsters and adults.
