There’s Still Time to Sign Up for the Dining with Diabetes Educational Series

Purdue Extension Elkhart County is offering the statewide Dining with Diabetes series in May. Dining with Diabetes is a weekly class that runs for four weeks. The four classes will be offered Monday, May 1, 8, 15, and 22. Classes will be held from 2 p.m.-4 p.m. (Eastern Time) at the Nappanee Public Library. A follow-up session will take place on Monday, August 21 at 2 p.m.

The class is open to those with diabetes, their family members, and caretakers. The series costs $40/person or $65/couple and includes a notebook and printed materials. (Couples will share a notebook.) Pre-registration is required and participants are encouraged to attend all class sessions.

Participants will learn up-to-date information on nutrition, meal planning, exercise, and how to understand common diabetes related medical tests as well as how to prepare meals that are healthy, easy to prepare, and tasty. Recipes will be demonstrated and samples will be available to participants.
