According to the American Diabetes Association, nearly 14% of all adults in Kentucky have diabetes, and almost 34% are pre-diabetic.

The Lexington Fayette County Health Department has an event this weekend to educate on prevention and disease management.

The 2020 for Diabetes Expo is tomorrow, and it's a free way to get connected with screenings, education services, cooking demonstrations and more.

We want to meet people that are diabetic emotionally, physically, spiritually.

You're going to see a vast amount.

Vendors that are going to relate to, I put it like your head to toe, your whole body.

We don't want to just particularly focus just on the medication piece or just on the one piece, but we want to take a look at some symptoms that may come along with having diabetes.

So you're going to see screening, food, demos, nutrition, education, resources for local diabetic resources that are available out there for a plethora of type one type to pre-diabetic.

And then overall, we just want you to have fun.

We want you to enjoy a good, nutritious meal.

We are going to serve lunch there.

So that's something we wanted to focus that it's a healthy meal when you in terms of when you are having being diabetic, type one, Type two, pre-diabetic and just interactive.

We want it to be interactive and engaging.

We want it to have where it's a one stop shop for your diabetic needs.

There will be Spanish language services available at the Expo and breakout sessions led entirely in Spanish as well.
