On October 24th, 2007 several members of our American Diabetes Wholesale team and their families will be gathering to bowl and raise money for the walk.  If you are in the area, stop by Boca Bowl, in Boca Raton, FL to help the cause, and also cheer us on for strikes.

If you have not yet sponsored a walker and would still like to, follow the link here to sponsor one of our walkers from the ADW Power Walkers Team.

We work hard at American Diabetes Wholesale to stand behind our commitment to the diabetic community. Our role in the “fight against diabetes” is to ensure everyone is able to get affordable diabetic supplies. We understand the importance of monitoring blood glucose levels and the complications that may occur, if not properly controlled.

The cost of necessary supplies should never be a barrier to anyone’s health. This is why we will continue to provide the lowest prices on all our diabetic testing products. We carry almost every brand available so our customers can choose which brands best meets their needs. With the launch of our September weekly diabetic newsletter we recently lowered prices on many of our most popular brands. ADW – Keeping Diabetes Management Affordable!

I am excited to announce that we will be carrying a variety of ConvaTec products. I’ve heard great things about this brand.

We will now offer the DuoDERM CGF Extra Thin, DuoDERM CGF, DuoDERM CGF Border, and KALTOSTAT Fortex Dressing. Just in case your wondering, CGF stands for “Control Gel Formula.” The gel helps to maintain a moist environment, which promotes healing and also reduces pain and trauma to the skin while removing the dressing. The sizes that we offer will be limited for now, but will probably increase in the near future.

We will also be carrying the Convatec Ostomy Appliance Belt (made to hold the ostomy bag), Stomahesive Paste (ideal as a protective skin barrier, helps to prevent leakage and skin irritation, provides a better fit and longer wear time from your ostomy system) and Stomahesive Powder (absorbs moisture, helps to prevent skin irritation.)

Does anyone have any feedback regarding ConvaTec? What other products should we add?

In this issue of American Diabetes Wholesale’s weekly newsletter, the main topic discussed is skin care for diabetics. Many readers may be aware of the unique demands placed on our skin, especially those of us with diabetes. Keeping a healthy daily routine is crucial to overall health, and this newsletter touches upon the symptoms, but more importantly, the simple, everyday habits that can prevent these problems.

Don’t forget that American Diabetes Wholesale carries a range of diabetic skin care products, including the superb Anastasia Clinically Superior Hand & Body Treatment.

Don’t overlook the best part, a delicious recipe for Pineapple Upside Down Cake!
