My doctor recommended Care4life when I was having trouble getting my blood sugar down. At first I was overwhelmed by all the things I need to do to take care of my diabetes, but the daily messages really gave me the support I needed to take it step by step. Now I try to move every day. I’ve even lost a few pounds, and my blood sugar is lower.
