Celebrity Chef Leticia Moreinos Schwartz Partners with Merck on Desafiando La Diabetes: Logra Tus Metas to Urge Hispanics With Type 2 Diabetes to Get to Their A1C Goal

Culinary Expert Visits San Antonio on August 16 to Help Educate At-Risk Population About Ingredients for Successful Blood Sugar Management


WHITEHOUSE STATION, New Jersey, Aug. 15, 2014 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Merck (NYSE: MRK), known as MSD outside the United States and Canada, is teaming with celebrity chef and cookbook author Leticia Moreinos Schwartz on Desafiando La Diabetes: Logra Tus Metas, an educational program encouraging Hispanics with type 2 diabetes to achieve better control of their blood sugar—a key treatment goal to help reduce the risk of serious health problems. Hispanics in the United States are at a higher risk for developing type 2 diabetes than non-Hispanic white adults, and it is the fifth leading cause of death within the Hispanic community. Chef Leticia, who has a family history of type 2 diabetes, will visit select cities to cook up some of her favorite diabetes-friendly Latin recipes, urge Hispanics to know their A1C (average blood sugar level over the past two to three months), and work with their doctors to set and attain their own A1C goal.

For many people with diabetes, it is recommended by the American Diabetes Association (ADA) that they have an A1C of less than 7 percent to help reduce the risk of complications. For certain individuals, a higher or lower A1C goal may be more appropriate, which is why it is important for people with diabetes to speak with their health care providers to discuss the A1C goal that is right for them. Nearly half of people with diabetes have an A1C greater than 7 percent.

“After living with type 2 diabetes for many years, my grandfather passed away from a stroke, one of the serious complications of diabetes, so I know how important it is for people with diabetes to know their A1C and make a commitment to get to their A1C goal,” said Chef Leticia. “I’m proud to work with Merck on Desafiando La Diabetes to help urge Hispanics to learn about how to control blood sugar and inspire them to eat healthier as part of an overall plan to reach their goals.”

Lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise, as well as medications (if prescribed by your doctor), are all important to help you get to your A1C goal. Because diabetes is progressive, sometimes adjustments to your treatment plan are necessary, including changes to medications, diet, and activity level. As part of the program, Chef Leticia is sharing some of her favorite diabetes-friendly Hispanic dishes through cooking demonstrations with the American Diabetes Association (ADA) at the Univision Latina Health Fair event in San Antonio at the Freeman Coliseum on August 16. Attendees will also have the opportunity to sample one of these dishes, which will be served by a participating local food truck.

“We are excited to work with Merck and Univision to feature Desafiando La Diabetes as part of this year’s Latina Health Fair,” said Tiffani Nair, Director of Mission Delivery & Communications, American Diabetes Association. “The American Diabetes Association is committed to raising awareness of diabetes and providing relevant resources for people with diabetes to help them get to their treatment goals. This program is providing important information for Hispanics living with type 2 diabetes, as well as their friends and family.”

Diabetes disproportionately affects the Hispanic community in the United States. Hispanic adults are nearly twice as likely to be diagnosed with diabetes as non-Hispanic white adults. In fact, almost 13% of U.S. Hispanic adults are already diagnosed, which is one of the highest prevalence rates among ethnic groups in the country. Hispanics comprise 59.1 percent of the population in Bexar County, which has an overall diabetes prevalence of 16 percent.

“Many people with type 2 diabetes may not realize that high blood sugar levels over time can lead to serious long-term health problems, so it’s important that Hispanics and others living with diabetes learn how to better manage their disease,” said Robert Espinoza, MD, Family Medicine, Santa Ana California. “Desafiando La Diabetes will help educate Hispanics in San Antonio about the importance of working with their doctors to come up with an individualized treatment plan to help them get to their A1C goal, track their progress and adjust the plan if needed, since diabetes is a progressive disease.”

Most people with diabetes are aware of the importance of controlling high blood sugar, but it’s also important for them to understand why blood sugar can sometimes go too low. For people on certain diabetes medications, low blood sugar can be caused by skipping meals or excessive exercise and can make you feel shaky, dizzy, sweaty, hungry, and sometimes, faint. Make sure your doctor explains the signs and symptoms of high and low blood sugar to you and let him or her know if you are experiencing any of those symptoms.

At the Latina Health Fair event, Chef Leticia will encourage people with type 2 diabetes to pledge to know their A1C and to talk to their doctor about setting and attaining their own blood sugar goals. Friends and family can also pledge to challenge their loved ones to get to their goals. People with type 2 diabetes who take the challenge can stay motivated by completing missions and accessing important resources available on DesafiandoLaDiabetes.com that will help them work with their doctor to come up with an individualized treatment plan that is right for them.

About Type 2 Diabetes
Approximately 29.1 million people in the United States have diabetes, and 90% to 95% of these people have type 2 diabetes. One of three American men and nearly 2 of 5 American women born in 2000 will develop diabetes sometime during their lifetime.

When someone has type 2 diabetes, the body does not make enough insulin, and/or the insulin that the body makes does not work properly. This causes blood sugar levels to become too high, and the body may also keep making sugar even though it does not need it. Once a person has type 2 diabetes, it does not go away, and having diabetes can lead to serious health problems, such as heart disease and stroke.

People with type 2 diabetes can reduce their risk of serious complications by setting individual goals to manage the ABCs of diabetes – A for A1C, also known as blood sugar, B for blood pressure and C for cholesterol.

We Must Invest in Technology to Assist in the Development of Central America

0

SAN ANTONIO, Aug. 15, 2014 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The following statement was made by Cris Arcos, Former U.S. Ambassador to Honduras and AT&T Corporation Vice President and Managing Director for International Public Affairs for Latin America and Canada. President Obama’s administration recently allotted $337 million to aid the region of Central America and address the crisis of the large volume of undocumented Central American children who have come into the U.S. in the past months without accompaniment of an adult. The United States government should support Central American governments who have an effective policy for the eradication of corruption and the undue influence of organized crime, which is currently the largest obstacle for the social and economic development of countries like Guatemala.

Emigration of Central American individuals into the U.S., especially that of children and youth, is a result of the lack security and the violence that they face. Cartels – and the politicians that join them – not only create insecurity in these countries, but also limit the basic development and growth opportunities for these youth, such as limited access to Internet and technology.

For example, on April 25, 2014, the Guatemalan government implemented the Law of Control of Mobile Telecommunications in Prisons and Strengthening of the Data Infrastructure, which was approved by the National Congress of Guatemala in response to the illicit transactions and extortion acts that have been generated in the country since the implementation of the General Telecommunications Law in 1996.

However, the new law is under attack by certain groups that benefit from the corruption in the country. Opposition by municipalities is due to the establishment of fixed fees that eliminate arbitrary charges by the local authorities. Even worse is the opposition by cartels against the measures established by the new legislation that demand mobile phone service operators to implement solutions that prevent the access to this type of telecommunications inside prisons. According to reported data, 93 percent of the extortions that affect citizens originate inside the country’s prisons, taking advantage of the benefits offered by mobile phone services. In the long run, this law will help decrease the monetary power and undue influence of various corrupt groups in the country, helping to overcome one of the biggest problems of the region.

In its totality, the new Law of Control of Mobile Telecommunications in Prisons and Strengthening of the Data Infrastructure will generate security in the country in addition to promoting the progress of Guatemala in the telecommunications field. Some of its greatest benefits will be the installation of security cameras throughout the country for the improvement of its preventive security and the implementation of Internet in schools for educational purposes, decreasing the great digital inequality that can be currently observed in the country. Several telecommunications companies have expressed their interest in investing in the expansion of systems and infrastructures of that sector, which was not possible before because of the large levels of corruption in the sector.

These types of laws allow the development of the necessary infrastructure to create economic opportunities in the country, while simultaneously helping to reduce the lack of security and the violence that push immigration of numerous Central Americans to the U.S. in search of safety and a better future. For this reason, the United States government should pay more attention to countries like Guatemala, that too often find themselves with their hands tied due to the levels of corruption that have managed to infiltrate certain sectors of their society; and support their initiatives for the development of the country.

About Cris Arcos
Ambassador Cresencio (Cris) Arcos has had a prestigious career, which involves many senior positions in and out of government. In 1989, President George H. W. Bush named him U.S. Ambassador to Honduras. The last position of his diplomatic career was as Senior Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for International Narcotics and Law Enforcement. Previously, he was AT&T Corporation Vice President and Managing Director for International Public Affairs for Latin America and Canada for market access, regulatory framework, business development and fair competition.
