At Hampstead Family Medicine, we’re proud to support Diabetes Awareness Month by highlighting the importance of understanding, preventing, and managing diabetes. With over 37 million Americans affected, awareness is key to protecting your health and the health of your loved ones.

How You Can Take Action
- Know Your Risk: Factors like family history, weight, and inactivity increase your chances.
- Get Screened: Regular blood sugar tests can catch warning signs early.
- Make Healthy Choices: A balanced diet, regular exercise, and maintaining a healthy weight are powerful tools for prevention.
