Taking Control of Your Diabetes – Revamped!

Tune in June 24 at 8pm for the season premiere of Taking Control of Your Diabetes (TCOYD), the interview series hosted by renowned diabetes expert Dr. Steven Edelman. This season marks the beginning of UCSD-TV’s new production partnership with the TCOYD team, which means a totally revamped format–including special exercise and nutrition segments.

The premiere episode, Diabetes Prevention, features experts Dr. Matthias von Herrath and Dr. Robert Henry sharing information about the prevention of type 1 and type 2 diabetes.

We’ll premiere a new program each month and add fresh web content throughout the year at our TCOYD blog, so keep checking back!

The ABCs of Vitamin D

Last year we premiered a new series about Vitamin D deficiency from UCSD School of Medicine and GrassrootsHealth and, based upon the tremendous audience response, this is one hot topic! We’re happy to present a new batch of programs that further explore this hotly debated topic. More information and archives of last season are available at the Vitamin D series page.
