“Dining with Diabetes” Class

The Ohio State University Extension Office in Wayne County and Dunlap Community Hospital will be offering a “Dining with Diabetes” class beginning Tuesday, November 9th at 6:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m. at Dunlap Community Hospital Community Room continuing on Tuesday, November 16, and November 30.

“Dining with Diabetes” is a once-a-week
class that runs for three weeks with a three-month follow-up class. This class is open to
those with diabetes, their family members and caretakers. Class fee is $25.00 per person
or $35.00 per couple. Space is limited and pre-registration is required. It is suggested that
participants attend all class sessions for greatest benefit.

You will learn how to prepare meals that are healthy, easy to prepare and taste good.
Recipes will be demonstrated, and participants will have the opportunity to taste each one. Participants will also learn up-to-date information on nutrition, meal planning, exercise and how to understand common diabetes-related medical tests. Recipes and handouts will be given to each participant. Diabetes is a very serious and costly disease, but research has shown that those who learn
to manage their blood glucose (sugar) levels, eat a healthy diet, and exercise regularly can
lower their risks of complications and lead a healthier and more productive life.

Dining with Diabetes is offered statewide and is sponsored by Ohio State University
Extension and Dunlap Community Hospital.
