Diabetes Reset and Elder Chicks

Diabetes Reset and Elder Chicks
Kathryn interviews George L. King MD, Research Director at Harvard’s Joslin Diabetes Center and author of “The Diabetes Reset: Avoid It. Control It. Even Reverse It.” Imagine controlling, avoiding, or reversing diabetes – that’s what 106 million Americans are searching for. Dr. King busts the media myths that keep Americans from changing their habits, outlining a clear twelve-week implementation plan for taking control over diabetes. Kathryn also interviews Thelma Reese EdD, former Hooked on Phonics spokesperson and author of “The New Senior Woman: Reinventing the Years Beyond Mid-Life”. Today’s senior women are healthier, better educated, and more active than the women who preceded them. Reese and co-author Barbara Fleisher EdD bring us stories from women in their sixties and beyond that reveal the realities of the challenges faced by retirement-age women. Fleisher and Reese host the popular blog Elder Chicks.
