March 2024 eNews | Plant Based Eating, Untangling Weight Stigma, Mohammed Ali Shares a Recipe for Life

Happy March

We love celebrating National Nutrition Month and the registered dietitian nutritionists who help us maintain the pleasure of eating while empowering us to make informed decisions about daily food choices.

We are honored to highlight the significant impact RDNs have on individuals, communities, and society as a whole by promoting healthy eating habits, preventing disease, and improving our overall quality of life by encouraging us to eat a rainbow of foods filled with fiber and phytonutrients.

In this newsletter, we explore different types of plant-based diets and recognize that accumulating evidence supports the benefits of this approach, including the prevention of type 2 diabetes. We include lots of additional resources to explore and share.

Next, Coach Beverly shares a personal story about confronting weight stigma during a provider visit. She asks readers to raise awareness in their settings and advocate for weight-inclusive and respectful care for each individual.

We share Mohammed Ali’s “Recipe for Life” as we consider including this recipe and all of its’ ingredients in our daily lives.

Our guest contributor, Nick Kundrant, provides insights into the transformative power of a positive mindset based on his book, “Positively Type 1”. His message of empathy, resilience, and a holistic approach to health care is inspiring, Thanks, Nick!

Finally, we are excited to announce our “Connect with Coach Beverly” live Facebook event on March 13th! Test your knowledge with our nutrition-inspired Questions and Rationales of the Week!

Sending notes of joy and health,

Coach Beverly and Bryanna

      February 2024 eNews | 5 Diabetes Scholarships, CDCES Test Changes & Chronotype

      Happy February

      We celebrate love in February, which is central to diabetes care and education. We open our hearts as we carefully listen to people share their stories about living with diabetes. We celebrate successes and grieve losses alongside the individuals we serve every day. We speak our hearts when we advocate for evidence-based care that enhances well-being and improves outcomes.

      In recognition of these daily contributions of diabetes care and education specialists, we are excited to announce our “Spreading the Love” Sale during the week of Valentine’s Day. Enjoy 15% off all our online courses, including program extensions. 

      This month’s newsletter includes a breaking post on the most significant change to the CDCES Exam in the past 30 years (besides moving to computer testing from scantrons). We also explore how chronotype can impact glucose levels and disease risk.

      As our company continues to flourish, we have expanded our team to maintain top-tier customer service. We are delighted to introduce our new customer advocate, Brent McMenomey. If you call in, you might catch his cheerful voice on the other end of the phone. In addition, he will be helping Bryanna answer chat questions and emails. Welcome Brent!

      We provide two rationales of the month based on the ADA Standards. We decided to post these questions with the rationales to include additional insights into the new and updated guidelines.

      As part of our commitment to foster inclusivity, diversity, and accessibility, we are offering FIVE “Making a Difference” Scholarships for our Virtual DiabetesEd Training Course on April 17-19th. Thank you in advance for considering applying and sharing with your colleagues.

          2023 – A Year of Celebrations

          We had such a great time celebrating 25 years with all of you.

          The first highlight of the year was connecting with colleagues at ADCES in Houston. It was like attending a family reunion with thousands of like-minded individuals. So many enthusiastic colleagues stopped me mid-stride to share the news of passing their CDCES or BC-ADM after attending our courses. Many hugs were shared, and there were plenty of tears of joy, too! As a diabetes education veteran, it was a special honor to present one of my passion topics, Revitalizing Your Diabetes Program. As part of my legacy education topics, this presentation is culled from my 30 years of working in the field and braving new approaches, sometimes failing but always moving forward with a clear focus on improving the care received by people with diabetes. Nothing is like the profound connection made with others in a shared community.

          We also celebrated our 25th company anniversary for the entire year. Activities included lots of free webinars, new swag, and great sales. 

          I started Diabetes Education Services in May of 1998, just after the World Wide Web was introduced, and sending messages through something called “email” was possible. At first, my one-person company only offered live courses at hospitals and meeting sites nationwide. My administrative space consisted of a 10×12 foot room in our home, where I juggled writing my monthly newsletter and updating slides while raising two busy toddlers. In 2010, I took a leap of faith and decided to try offering courses online.

          Fast forward to today. Our business has grown to include a fantastic team and a newsletter reaching over 40,000 online subscribers. Our Online University includes over 50 CE courses that we update yearly, plus we offer a CDCES Coach app, blogs, an 8-sided PocketCard, keynote presentations, and more. This year, we held our three day DiabetesEd Course in San Diego and celebrated with a beautiful ocean view, special friends and delicious carrot cake topped with a 25 year candle.

          Family celebrations.

          My husband and I became empty nesters this year. Our oldest son is a senior at SMU and will graduate with his finance degree in May. Our youngest son is kicking off his chemistry degree at UC Berkeley. I miss the daily bustle and commotion of having my boys around, but I am overjoyed that they have found their place in this world and are boldly moving into adulthood. Of course, I can’t wait till they come home for the holidays so we can play cards, tell stories, and hang out together.

          We also celebrated 25 years of marriage. My husband, Kristapor, continues his work as a critical care pharmacist at our local community hospital saving lives and advocating for best care at every turn. At the risk of sounding corny, my husband has been the wind beneath my wings. Having him as my partner throughout this life journey has given me a foundation of trust and love to take risks and live my dream. I am forever grateful that I commented on his cute tie when we worked together at Stanford hospital in 1996. The rest is history.

          The truth is, we couldn’t have done any of this without all of YOU, our community. 

          I am forever grateful for your willingness to support and believe in a young Diabetes Specialist who had the vision to create a company that uplifted people with diabetes through a blend of science and compassion.

          Thanks to our dedicated community of diabetes educators and advocates for celebrating our 25th Anniversary with us. Stay tuned. We can’t wait to see what the future holds!

We believe in the potential of all students, from people living with diabetes to health care professionals striving to enhance their knowledge. Thank you for being a part of our lives and community.

            We will be closing shop starting today for the holidays. We will open our doors at 7am on Monday, well rested, a few pounds heavier and ready for our Cyber Monday Sale.

            On behalf of the entire Diabetes Education Services Team, Happy Thanksgiving!

            Celebrating Native American Heritage Month

            To recognize Native American Heritage Month, we are honored to share a treasured poem by one of my favorite poets and writers, Joy Harjo. Plus, we also share an interactive map of Indigenous Lands (credit to NPR).

            In 2019, Joy Harjo was recognized as the United States poet laureate and served three terms. Harjo is an internationally renowned performer and writer of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation.

            She lives in Tulsa, Oklahoma and is the author of nine books of poetry, including the highly acclaimed An American Sunrise, several plays and children’s books, and two memoirs, Crazy Brave and Poet Warrior. Her many honors include the Ruth Lily Prize for Lifetime Achievement from the Poetry Foundation, the Academy of American Poets Wallace Stevens Award, two NEA fellowships, and a Guggenheim Fellowship. 

            You can learn more about Joy Harjo on her webpage, www.joyharjo.com.

            Remember

            Joy Harjo

            Remember the sky that you were born under,
            know each of the star’s stories.
            Remember the moon, know who she is.
            Remember the sun’s birth at dawn, that is the
            strongest point of time. Remember sundown
            and the giving away to night.
            Remember your birth, how your mother struggled
            to give you form and breath. You are evidence of
            her life, and her mother’s, and hers.
            Remember your father. He is your life, also.
            Remember the earth whose skin you are:
            red earth, black earth, yellow earth, white earth
            brown earth, we are earth.
            Remember the plants, trees, animal life who all have their
            tribes, their families, their histories, too. Talk to them,
            listen to them. They are alive poems.
            Remember the wind. Remember her voice. She knows the
            origin of this universe.
            Remember you are all people and all people
            are you.
            Remember you are this universe and this
            universe is you.
            Remember all is in motion, is growing, is you.
            Remember language comes from this.
            Remember the dance language is, that life is.
            Remember.


            Which Indigenous lands are you on? This map will show you.

            From NPR

            Indigenous Peoples’ Day is a time of reflection, recognition and celebration of the role Native people have played in U.S. history. One way to mark the day — and to learn about Indigenous history year-round — is to learn which Native lands you live on.

            September 2023 eNews | Revitalize Your Diabetes Program – New FREE Webinar

            Happy September

            As temperatures cool and kids head back to school, we begin switching gears to prepare for an exciting line-up of Fall activities.

            We are thrilled to offer a brand-new webinar, “Revitalizing Your Diabetes Program or Business,” on September 28th. We are offering this for FREE as part of our ongoing 25-year celebration. Please know that if you can’t join us live, once you register for any of our programs, you will receive a link to the recorded version, usually within 24 hours.

            We also invite you to join three FREE webinars we are offering in September. You can pop in for our CDCES or BC-ADM Prep webinars, which Coach Beverly will be broadcasting from her international office in France.

            Next, we feature Dr. Diana Isaacs discussing the proposed Medicare (CMS) drug price negotiations designed to make commonly used and expensive medications more affordable. Four of the ten medications outlined are used to treat people with diabetes. You can learn more about this proposal and view a podcast where Dr. Isaacs and Dr. Bellini provide more details in our featured article.

            Eating more fruits and vegetables as part of a prescription program improved the health of study participants at over twelve different sites. The goal is to create sustainable, community-based programs that will enhance access to these healing foods for the long term.

            After working at Diabetes Education Services for over a decade, my son, Jackson, is kicking off his chemistry studies at UC Berkeley. We sure miss him, but we are excited to cheer him on as he enters this next phase of life. Thank you, Jackson, for your contributions and for recommending Ginger Nichols to continue your legacy.

            We invite you to challenge yourself with our question and rationale of the week. We hope you can join our three-day live conference and 25-Year celebration party, cupcakes and swag included, in San Diego.

            With gratitude and appreciation,

            Coach Beverly and Bryanna

            Renewing Your CDCES? Important Updates you need to know

            You passed the CDCES Exam (yay)! Now five years have flown by, you are up for renewal. How do you maintain this hard-earned certification?

            This year, the CBDCE published new rules to renew certification which you might have missed. To make sure there are no surprises during your renewal process, here are key considerations from the CBDCE Website that we hope you find helpful!

            2025 CDCES Renewal Updates

            To promote quality and inclusive diabetes care and education, the CBDCE Board changed the continuing education (CE) content requirements. Certificants will still need to complete 75 CE units over a five-year period. However, to make sure CDCES’s stay abreast of the latest standards and promote inclusive care, the Board is now requiring participation in CE courses that provide updates on the ADA Standards of Care at least twice during the individual’s renewal cycle.

            This means that starting in 2023, certificants will need to start acquiring these more specific CEs in preparation for 2025 renewal.

            1. Required CE Activities now include ADA Standards Update

            According to the CBDCE, to successfully renew their CDCES, applicants must participate in CE activities that are focused on the American Diabetes Association’s Standards of Care for Diabetes* two separate times during your renewal cycle.

            2. In addition, the following CE Activities are encouraged:

            If you are renewing your CDCES in 2025 or later by completing 75 CE units over the five-year period, the CBDCE requires that you demonstrate completion of the following type of CE Activities (you can immediately start accumulating these needed CEs). The CBDCE encourages the following CE activities at least once during your renewal cycle:

            • education principals/teaching strategies
            • diabetes-related technology;
            • leadership/strategy (e.g., CQI, change agent, program development);
            • population health; or
