The 8 June marked the start of Diabetes Week in the UK.
With more than five million people expected to be diagnosed with diabetes in the UK by 2025* it is a very real health issue facing your clients and their families.
At the age of 42 Fiona, an events manager and mum to twin girls, was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes.
“When I first found out I was really upset. I was worried about my health and being healthy enough to look after and enjoy my family” Fiona says.
After being diagnosed, Fiona purchased a life insurance policy with The Exeter which included access to nutritional consultations via HealthWise.
“I booked an appointment and had my first consultation via video-call from home. Having up to six consultations to support me meant I had lots of time to meet my goals by creating positive habits with lots of small steps.”
The path to a healthier future
So far, Fiona has had four consultations through HealthWise and has started to see the benefits of living a healthier lifestyle.
