Defeat Diabetes Foundation Releases Ebook Series

7 of 10 people with diabetes suffer from at least one complication of diabetes and many of them suffer from more than one. But, these complications don’t have to be the inevitable result of diabetes. It’s one of the reasons Defeat Diabetes Foundation has published the Defeat Diabetes® Rules for Survival™ series; to help people with diabetes live healthier and avoid the tragic and profound complications of the disease.

The series is being launched with 6 titles: Dental and Oral Care, Kidney Health, Foot Care, Visual Health, Hearing Care, Heart and Vascular Health. The EBooks are priced $2.99 - $6.99 and are available for Kindle at Amazon.com exclusively for the next 90 days.

Baseball

Baseball is lovingly called “America’s Pastime” in part because of its status as America’s most popular sport during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Baseball has been surpassed by football as a spectator sport; but according to recent studies conducted by the Harvard/Yale School of Sports Studies and Sports Studies Unlimited, approximately 42 Million men and boys play baseball in the United States each year (sorry, girls and women not included in that statistic).
 

More Diabetes Studies, Clinical Trials and Surveys

Research facilities, drug manufacturers and universities are conducting studies, clinical trials and surveys for new drugs, behavioral habits and other investigational information with the goal of improving our health.
