Health Transitions Clinic at Physicians’ Clinic of Iowa is hosting a free introductory seminar at 7 p.m. Dec. 19 in the third floor Community Room at PCI Medical Pavilion, 202 10th St. SE, Cedar Rapids.
Those who are pre-diabetic, recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes or struggling to control blood sugar are invited to the free seminar. The 10-month program offers guidance from a physician, a dietitian, monthly check-ins, support meetings and tools to track progress.
The process starts with an understanding of what dietary changes are necessary, implementing those changes, coupled with simultaneous changes in medications. Close monitoring of weight, blood pressure and blood sugar are necessary through this process. After initial weight loss, the team helps participants transition to an active lifestyle and develop a new diet they can maintain and enjoy. This program is specifically designed for people with type 2 diabetes, pre-diabetes and those at risk for developing diabetes.
Attendance at the free seminar is the first step in the plan. To learn more about Health Transitions Clinic and to RSVP for the seminar, go to https://healthtransitionsclinic.com.
