A brochure from the Obesity Action Coalition can help reinforce your discussions with patients about their increased risk of type 2 diabetes and other conditions when they suffer from obesity. This brochure lists symptoms that suggest a patient has or is developing type 2 diabetes, and provides a fasting blood sugar chart. The brochure is available at: http://www.obesityaction.org/educational-resources/brochures-and-guides/understanding-excess-weight-and-its-role-in-type-2-diabetes-brohure.
