this life-threatening chronic disease. Diabetes can lead to serious complications such as high blood pressure, heart disease, blindness, neuropathy and more.

NASCAR XFINITY Series® driver Ryan Reed was determined not to allow his diabetes diagnosis to stop him. So far this season Ryan has won at Daytona and currently sits eighth in the XFINITY Series Playoff standings. With consistent physical activity, healthy eating, and a supportive health care team, he perseveres every day to stay healthy and safely on the track. Join Ryan to take control of your health and make diabetes care a priority. Ryan is living proof that with commitment and lifestyle changes, diabetes doesn’t have to prevent you from doing what you love.

Summer is here, which means that barbecue season is as well. Consider replacing a heavier dish while still satisfying your taste buds with a lighter option like these fresh grilled scallops with chunky salsa verde. For more guilt-free summer recipes, check out our Recipes for Healthy Living.

The 77th Scientific Sessions


The American Diabetes Association® is dedicated to preventing and curing diabetes. That’s why we hold our annual Scientific Sessions, bringing leaders in diabetes research together to share their findings on treatment, care and innovation. Here are some research highlights from the 77th Scientific Sessions, which took place in June in San Diego.
