UPDATE: Purdue Extension moves deadline for Dining with Diabetes email Challenge

Anyone wanting to learn to manage their diabetes is invited to enroll in the Dining with Diabetes email Challenge, a four-week email program to encourage individuals with diabetes to improve their diabetes self-care behaviors.

Participants will receive two weekly emails from Purdue 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 Friday, May 8. The first email of the four-week outreach starts on May 11. These dates are changed from the original announcement.

Each email includes online text (that can be downloaded and printed) and an online discussion board to facilitate participant discussion.

Topics to be covered include: What is diabetes? What are carbohydrates and how many can I have? How to build a support system.
