Prediabetes and diabetes – what can you do?

health Nov 04, 2020

November 14, 2019, is World Diabetes Day (WDD). It is the birthday of Sir Frederick Banting, who co-discovered insulin along with Charles Best in 1922. WDD was created in response to growing concerns about the escalating health threat posed by diabetes.

Having prediabetes means your blood glucose (sugar) levels are higher than normal—but not high enough to be diagnosed as diabetes. Prediabetes can lead to heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes, the most common form of diabetes.

Prediabetes can often be reversed.

With type 1 diabetes, your body cannot make insulin, so you need to take insulin every day. Type 1 diabetes is less common than type 2 diabetes; about 5% of the people who have diabetes have type 1. Currently, no one knows how to prevent type 1 diabetes.

With type 2 diabetes, your body cannot properly use insulin (a hormone that helps glucose get into the cells of the body). You can get type 2 diabetes at any age, but you are at higher risk if you are older, overweight,

As Christian women, we are called to steward our health as a form of worship and service to God.

Healthy Life Habits And The Truth Mindset: Building Consistency

health Sep 07, 2020

When it comes to personal development and health, consistency is key. As Christian women, we aim to honor God with our bodies, minds, and spirits, but building and maintaining healthy habits can be challenging. Whether it is improving our diet, increasing physical activity, or spending more time in prayer and devotion, success lies in our small, daily choices. These choices become habits, and those habits, over time, shape our lives. This blog will explore how the Truth Mindset can help you build consistent healthy habits that honor God and support your overall well-being.

Galatians 6:9 - "And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not."

God calls us to perseverance, reminding us that the effort we put into doing what is right and good will yield results in His timing. Developing consistent habits takes patience and dedication, but as this verse reminds us, if we keep at it and do not give up, we will see the fruits of our labor.

Stress can easily build up, affecting our mental, emotional, and physical health, whether it's managing work, family, or personal expectations. As followers of Christ, we know that God's plan for us is one of peace, and we are called to cast our burdens on Him (1 Peter 5:7). A Truth Mindset is the key to overcoming stress, as it helps us reframe our thoughts, trust in God’s sovereignty, and experience true peace.

Matthew 11:28-30 tells us, "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."

When You See Health From A Christian Perspective

health Jul 13, 2020

Health touches every aspect of our lives—physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. As Christians, our understanding of health is deeply rooted in our relationship with God and the teachings of the Bible. The Bible offers valuable insights into how we should care for our bodies and souls, reminding us that true health encompasses more than just physical well-being; it is about living in harmony with God’s design.

Our Bodies as Temples of the Holy Spirit

In 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, the Apostle Paul writes, "What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's."
