Here is a video of Nick Jonas in a “I have Diabetes” commercial! There are a lot of commercials about diabetes because the statistics reveal that type 1 and type 2 diabetes continues to rise in the United States! Many diabetic celebrities are now in support creating diabetic commercials!
After watching this video, take time to learn more about diabetes. Either you or some one you love has this disease and if you don’t know anyone with diabetes right now, you will some day! We all want a cure for diabetes, but until then, make sure to know what it’s about and how to deal with type one diabetes and type two diabetes!
Nick Jonas has type one diabetes. He found out he had type one diabetes in November of 2005. How did this Jonas Brother find out he had diabetes? He noticed symptoms of diabetes which are common for people who don’t have their sugar level regulated. (Thirst, using the bathroom more frequently, being irritated)
Nick Jonas did the right thing when he found out he was a diabetic! He started to test his sugar level, and started giving himself insulin! Soon after, he got an insulin pump to manage his diabetes since he is on the road a lot. The insulin pump has helped him have better control of his diabetes and now he has less low blood sugars.
How about Nick’s A1C? At first it was at 11-12% but with the insulin pump and better management of his diabetes, this Jonas Brother has brought his A1C down to 7-8%. (A diabetic’s goal is to get their A1C level under 7%.)
In March 2007, Nick Jonas publicly announced that he had diabetes. Instead of allowing himself to be embarrassed of his diabetic condition, this Jonas Brother put his condition in the forefront! Now his fans are asking him about his condition and many fans are stating they are a diabetic or know someone who has diabetes! Pretty awesome way to handle this disease!
There are a many videos about diabetes. Here is one with this Jonas Brother promoting the CONTOUR USB blood glucose meter!
