Please join us at The Gardens of Virginia Beach with our partner Oak Street Health for a workshop on Diabetes Prevention. Diabetes is a metabolic disorder that affects the way the body converts food into energy. There are three types of diabetes: type 1, type 2, and gestational. While type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disorder, type 2 diabetes can be prevented by making necessary lifestyle adjustments. Learn more about the risk factors, the symptoms and the best way to prevent type 2 diabetes from developing.
