SUBWAY also joined the event as the main kids’ run sponsor.

Participants may register via www.diabetesrunaruba.com, pay before September 30th, and get a chance to win one of the attractive Early Bird Special prizes.

The event is design to raise funds to help locals, suffering from diabetes, get greater access to much-needed care, through Fundacion Diabetes Aruba, FDA.

The foundation’s PRISMA prevention program for diabetes type 2, targets people who want to actively take control of their health, manage their diabetes more effectively, and prevent other health complications, that are associated with the disease.

Diabetes is a serious challenge on the island, as the percentage of people with diabetes is almost DOUBLE the percentage of worldwide population with diabetes. Half of all diabetes patients are not even aware of the fact that they are afflicted, and do not receive any of the medical attention they need.

Aruba Aloe, Botica di Servicio, Subway, and FDA, promote a healthy lifestyle in order to reduce the risk of becoming a person with diabetes, and consequently reduce the need for medication. A healthy lifestyle can help patients live without medications, and helps get diabetes under control. Additionally, healthy eating, exercise, and weight loss, helps the body react more positively to insulin, in the presence of the disease.
