November is American Diabetes Month. Throughout the month, the American Diabetes Association aims to bring greater awareness and attention to the seriousness of diabetes, the importance of proper diabetes control, and its potentially life-threatening complications such as heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, blindness and amputation.

To learn more about the relationship between diabetes and anemia, check out NAAC’s free information handout and the article Recognizing Anemia in People with Diabetes. For additional information about how to get involved with American Diabetes Month, visit the ADA’s website.
