November is National Diabetes Month and the Taylorville Memorial Hospital is hosting an event on Tuesday November 5th, 2019 from 5:30 until 8:00 that’s all about helping you. Janelle Cornell is a Clinical Dietitian at Taylorville Memorial Hospital and she said that the speakers start at 6, but they’ll be there starting at 5:30 if you want to get your blood sugar or blood pressure checked.

The first speaker is Pharmacist Stephen Salisbury who is there to help diabetics understand the medicine that they’re taking and to discuss some potential alternatives.

One of the other speakers, according to Cornell, will be Kathy Levin who will be discussing the importance of a plant based diet.
