Diabetes Roundtable Inspired by Queen Latifah

Queen Latifah, her incredible talent, her journey from rapper to multimedia superstar and her empowering message: "Stay positive and keep your eyes on your goals and don’t let anyone hold you back from pursuing your dreams” inspire this episode of Diabetes Roundtable.

Mr. Divabetic, the happiest healthcare mc, hosts this thirty minute whirlwind of diabetes infotainment, which includes a hot topic discussion with three certified diabetes educators, a.k.a. The Divabetic Charlie’s Angels of Diabetes Outreach: Judi Wilcox, R.D., CDE of Hollywood, FL, Pamela C. Butler, MS, CDE of New Orleans, LA and Eugenia Millender, MS, RN, PMHFNP of West Palm Beach, FL.; @Cherise, a real diva and Divabetic Twitter follower living with diabetes; a menu review of healthy dining choices at AMC Theatres,  a Food Aisle Face-off between Chicken Wings and Pigs in a Blanket; a Makeover in a Minute tip from celebrity fitness trainer Katherine “IRONKAT” Adamenko of New York, NY; and a Mother Your Diabetes commentary from Divabetic’s Mama Rose Marie.

Divabetic was inspired by the late music legend, Luther Vandross and created in 2005 by Max ‘Mr. Divabetic’ Szadek, who, as Vandross’ assistant of 14 years, witnessed his boss, mentor, and friend struggle in silence and solitude with the diabetes and its related complications. Since its inception, Divabetic has presented outreach programs in 15 major U.S. cities, reaching hundreds of thousands of women, their families and health care professionals.
