Purdue Extension offering Dining with Diabetes Challenge

Purdue Extension Putnam County is inviting those with diabetes to join its Dining with Diabetes Challenge.

This four-week email program encourages individuals with diabetes to improve their self-care behaviors, and to learn more about what diabetes is, what carbohydrates are (and how many they can have) and how to build a support system.

Participants will receive two weekly emails from Extension faculty that will contain the best diabetes health practices, recipes, goal-setting and support to increase knowledge, try new approaches and receive virtual support.

The registration deadline is Oct. 26. The first email will come on Nov. 2. Participants will also have the opportunity to join a private Facebook group.

Those interested in the program may sign up at https://forms.gle/yVjZVxvR58RcPitu8.
