Diabetes doesn't stop elite athletes
Top athletic performance requires good control of blood sugar levels. That's possible even for people with diabetes. Athletes can effectively compete by frequently monitoring their blood sugar, using insulin appropriately and paying close attention to their diet. Some big names among athletes with diabetes include: Olympic Gold Medalist Gary Hall, Jr., triathlete Shannon Standridge, ironman David Weingard, and NFL players Mike Echols, Mike Sinclair and Jay Leeuwenburg.
