Diabetes doesn't stop elite athletes
Did you know top athletic performance requires good control
of blood sugar levels. That's possible even for people with diabetes. Athletes
can effectively compete by frequently monitoring their blood sugar, using
insulin appropriately and paying close attention to their diet. Some big
names among athletes with diabetes include: Olympic Gold Medalist Gary
Hall, Jr., triathlete Shannon Standridge, ironman David Weingard, and NFL
players Mike Echols, Mike Sinclair and Jay Leeuwenburg..
