Diabetic Thermal Crew Socks (SET OF 6) Accepted by the American & Canadian Podiatric Medical Association Item #:F2062 Description: – Relaxed fit – Cushiony all over – Reverso toe closure Crew Length: A sock that extends beyond ankle length, but not beyond the largest part of the calf. Typically 9″ to 12″ in length. Extra-Smooth Reverso Toe Closure: The Reverso toe closure is done the same way as a smooth looped toe seam, except that the sock is not turned inside out before closing the toe. Although this method leaves a slightly raised seam on the outside of the sock, it provides an extra-smooth surface on the inside where it contacts the foot. Overview: Finally a relaxed fit thermal boot sock made to keep warm, dry and blanketed in comfort and protection, keeping you active even in the cold weather months. Color & Size: Grey/Denim (273) Sizes: MD,LG,XL Loden/New Olive (300) Sizes: MD,LG Grey/Black (792) Sizes: MD,LG,XL Contents: 65% Acrylic, 20% Merino Wool, 10% Stretch Nylon, 4% Stretch Polyester, 1% Elastic (rubber) Nylon: A very strong, versatile, hard wearing fiber. Socks made of nylon can be thin and silky or bulky and highly elastic. Nylon is often used with other fibers to give added stretch or to improve durability. Wool: The original, easy care fiber. The crimp in the wool fiber causes it to act like a tiny spring, but coils back to its original position. It features inherent qualities such as wrinkle resistance, colorfastness, shape recovery (resilience) and it breathes with your body. It can be knit in various weights to provide increasing levels of insulation for every temperature. Wool yarn, when knit into a thicker sock, tends to be bulky and lofty. Air becomes entrapped and it becomes an ideal insulator. Wools socks also keep feet drier because wool absorbs as much as 30% of its own weight in moisture before it begins to feel damp. Elastic: A rubber or spandex (synthetic elastic) that provides extreme stretch and recovery. It is

Could You be at Risk? American Diabetes ociation “Sounds the Alert” on March 25th — ADA’s 20th Annual American Diabetes Alert® Day

Could you have diabetes? One in five Americans have a high risk of developing type 2 diabetes, or may even already have diabetes. Because people can live for years without knowing they have diabetes, the American Diabetes ociation (ADA) is issuing an urgent call-to-action for Americans to learn their risk for type 2 diabetes during the 20th Annual American Diabetes Alert Day. Awareness about diabetes can lead to early detection and treatment, which may help prevent type 2 diabetes or devastating complications ociated with diabetes such as heart disease, stroke, blindness, kidney disease, and amputation.

On American Diabetes Alert Day, held annually on the fourth Tuesday in March, the ADA encourages people who are overweight, physically inactive, or over the age of 45 years to take the Diabetes Risk Test, which asks seven simple questions about weight, age, lifestyle and family history – all potential risk factors for type 2 diabetes. People scoring 10 points or more are at a high risk for diabetes and are encouraged to speak with their health care provider. The Diabetes Risk Test, in English or Spanish, is available by calling the ociation toll-free at 1-800-DIABETES (1-800-342-2383) or by visiting www.diabetes.org/alertnews.
