In the spirit of promoting diabetes awareness in November, Mediclinic Newcastle recently hosted a day dedicated to testing blood sugar and pressure.
Members of the public were invited to take advantage of this opportunity and monitor their health free of charge.
Each patient also received a gift after registering for the free testings.
Friendly nurses and staff at Mediclinic advised patients on the importance of a balanced diet and exercise.
“One should always monitor their salt and sugar intake. Stress can also affect your blood pressure and sugar,” advised Nurse, Jabulile Jele.
