Type2diabetes.com

They provide the most accurate and relevant information on their blog. Their articles are contributed by physicians, patient advocates, and other healthcare experts. They encourage individuals touched by T2D to share their experiences with the community.

The website is brought to you by Health Union, LLC, an independent company that enables healthcare industry partners to reach and engage millions of people living with chronic conditions.

There are a number of topics including articles about mental health, T2D and COVID, as well as recipes. It’s another great source of information for diabetics to use.

Mission

To improve the lives of people with diabetes, prediabetes and obesity, and to advocate for action.

The diaTribe Foundation

They believe the country needs a political and cultural shift in order to reduce the burdens of diabetes or eliminating the disease entirely. They are committed to helping people with diabetes live happier, healthier, and more hopeful lives.

They have an informative weekly online newsletter for their readers that includes diabetes products, diabetes resources, and even personal stories. They seek to empower their readers with useful, additional information.

Donations help the foundation continue to offer actionable information and advocate for action to help people live happier, healthier, and more hopeful lives with diabetes.

Their foundation has been relatively successful as far as reaching more and more people. Perhaps one day we can eventually get somewhere in eliminating diabetes altogether.
