Event Description:
Diabetes can affect the health of the heart and blood vessels and often occurs alongside conditions such as hypertension and dyslipidemia. When these conditions occur together, they can increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke, kidney disease and other long-term complications.
Join us for an exploration of the connection between diabetes, high blood pressure, and cholesterol, why these conditions commonly occur together, and what people with diabetes should be aware of and monitor. This session will also discuss ways to manage these risk factors and help reduce the risk of vascular and cardiovascular complications.
