Read Christina’s full story at http://spr.ly/60581zHdO. After losing three close family members to heart disease complications as a result of type 2 diabetes, Christina experienced symptoms of a heart attack while at work. This landed her in the emergency room where tests revealed three blocked arteries, leading to a triple bypass surgery. Today, she controls her type 2 diabetes through regular exercise (her favorite is running), healthy eating and managing her medications.
