Controlling Diabetes

Controlling Diabetes

In conjunction with the G.O.A., free diabetic checks have been available at the Goan Festivals. In view of the large number of diabetics within the community, we have been encouraging all to reduce sugar intake by avoiding the serving of pre-sweetened beverages at various social gatherings and by reducing the consumption of Goan sweetmeats.

Diabetics have also been encouraged to have regular checks at their local Diabetic Clinics to ensure that the medication they are taking is controlling their diabetes.

GWS has made free glucometers available to diabetics at the Goan Festival.
