The main thing is changing my diet, said Shapiro as he munched on samples of diabetic-foods such as bars and crunchy snacks. Shapiro, who was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes about 12 years ago, said, This is a good product and it works.

He was one of an estimated 2,000 people on Saturday, March 23, 2013, who attended the TCOYD (Taking Control of Your Diabetes) conference in Santa Clara, California. The diabetes snacks he tasted are from Extend Nutrition, a leader in diabetes nutrition that offers a line of patented, doctor-developed snacks clinically proven to offer valuable benefits for people with diabetes.

The diabetic-foods company will continue to reach out to people just like Shapiro as it travels throughout the country this year to diabetic events aimed at improving the lives of people with diabetes.

The next few months begin with events planned for April 13, both in Chicago, IL and Seattle, WA sponsored by the American Diabetes Association. Those two expos are estimated to reach a combined 14,000 people.

In May and June, Extend Nutrition will reach about 40,000 people as it participates in two ADA expos on May 4 (Los Angeles, CA and Portland, OR); two more on May 18 (Savannah, GA, TCOYD, and San Antonio, Texas, ADA); and one on June 29-30 in San Jose, CA, Fit Expo).

The diabetes events include health screenings, cooking demonstrations, product and service exhibitors, non-profit organizations and leading health experts focusing on the management of diabetes, research and prevention.

The events are important to Extend Nutrition, said Jonathan Lindberg, the companys community outreach manager, because they match the companys goal to improve the lives of people with diabetes.

Participating in conferences reminds us all what is really important about our jobs and that is helping people live healthier and happier lives, Lindberg said. It is an invaluable experience to speak with members of the community and hear their opinion.
