Diabetes Education DEEP

Have you been diagnosed with pre-diabetes, diabetes or are you struggling with elevated blood sugars? Manage your health with Beacon Health & Fitness’ Diabetes Education, modeled off of the nationally recognized Diabetes Empowerment Education Program (DEEP™).

Diabetes education can be overwhelming, but with the help of a Registered Dietitian, a wellness coach and fitness specialists, you can learn ways to better manage blood sugars.  This program is based on the Diabetes Empowerment Education Program (DEEP™) and will help you better manage your health by looking at the combination of lifestyle and diet.  Each week will have reasonable, but challenging goals for each individual to help you feel your best and to set new healthy habits along the way.

Do you want to:

  • Learn how diabetes affects your whole body

  • Understand why certain foods cause changes in blood sugars?

  • Learn how to manage blood sugars better?
