Gaiam and the Mayo Clinic have teamed up to produce and market a series of wellness solutions DVDs including one for Type Two Diabetes.

The $20 DVD has a significant amount of useful information on Type 2 Diabetes and the practical management of it in everyday life. It is NOT a documentary on diabetes, nor is it about avoiding the disease altogether. The main idea of the video is to offer tips on managing Type Two Diabetes so you can avoid some of the more serious complications like kidney damage, vision loss and nerve damage.

Most of the content is common sense like “eat a healthy diet” and “learn all you can about the disease” but there are a great set of meditation and yoga exercises by top yoga exponent, Rodney Yee. Also, some more in-depth advice that teaches you how to do things like examine your feet for sores or blisters.

The DVD has a 90 minute runtime and includes:
Part 1 - Understanding Your Condition
A 30-minute conversation with Mayo Clinic specialists. Dr. Brent Bauer introduces you to the integrative treatment approach, and Mayo Clinic doctors share everything you need to know about diabetes and an array of conventional and alternative therapy options.

Part 2 - Eat Well To Feel Well
Change your diet to feel better Dr. Donald Hensrud, Chair, Preventive Medicine, Mayo Clinic, takes your grocery shopping and shares smart ways to eat healthy every day. A Mayo Clinic dietitian follows up with making meal planning simple.

Part 3 - Soothing Therapies
Rodney Yee, America's favorite yoga instructor, leads you in a simple 40-minute session of gentle, restorative yoga and stress-relieving meditation. The movements are ideal for beginners and designed to keep you active, improve circulation and release tension.

Bonus
You'll also get the 52-page Mayo Clinic My Stress Solution booklet. Reducing stress will help you feel better faster. Take charge of your health today.

For many Indians and Americans it is simply too late to avoid getting Type Two Diabetes but we can all continue to learn every day about ways to live with, manage and treat the disease so we don’t end up with a severely diminished quality of life as a result. After all, why suffer needlessly if you can easily manage Type 2 Diabetes.
