November is quickly approaching, and with it comes the tradition of National Diabetes Month. There are all sorts of way to celebrate, and the best ways are through education and taking care of yourself.

Healthy eating is encouraged by individuals and groups all over the USA, such as The Association for Dressings & Sauces (ADS).

In conjunction with The American diabetes association, the ADS offers advice and recipes geared towards health.

Though the cause of diabetes remains a mystery, it appears that genetics and environmental factors such as obesity and lack of exercise play roles in contributing to the disease. During November, take steps to lower your risk and jumpstart your journey down the path of healthy eating for life!

- Eat lots of vegetables and fruits from all colors of the rainbow, which offer numerous health benefits; don't forget salad dressings and dips to add extra flavor and pizzazz.

Go ahead...celebrate!
