New York Fitness Consultant Vows She Will Help Defeat Diabetes

New York, NY – April 27, 2006 – Katrina McKenna, Fitness Trainer, and president of MetamorFitness vows to raise money for the American Diabetes Association by riding and sponsoring a team in New York City’s June 4, 2006 Tour de Cure. Katrina’s goal is to raise $7000 for the ADA last year Katrina’s team raised almost $4000.

To motivate people to help reach MetamorFitness’ goal of $7000, MetamorFitness is offering a discount on the upcoming outdoor fitness camp. In addition, everyone who donates any amount to a member of our team can get a special free report: “The Truth about Weight Loss and Diabetes: What You Should Know Even if You Don't Have Diabetes”.

Diabetes is the seventh leading cause of death (fifth leading cause of death by disease); it diabetes affects over 20 million Americans, that’s 7% of the population and it is estimated that another 41 million Americans have pre-diabetes!

Diabetes is also epidemic in New York City. According to New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, more than 800,000 New Yorkers have diabetes. It is also estimated that 250,000 of those may have diabetes and not even know it. According to Mayor Bloomberg diabetes is the only health problem to affect New York City that is getting worse.

When you have diabetes, the body either doesn’t make enough insulin or cannot use its own insulin as well as it should to digest sugars. Without insulin sugars build up in the blood. If the sugar level gets too high, the cells of the body become damaged. As cells become damaged, they cannot perform their functions causing the complications of diabetes such as heart disease, blindness, kidney failure, and lower-extremity amputations.

Finding a cure for diabetes and helping to educate the public on prevention and management of diabetes is especially important to Katrina because several members of her family have been diagnosed with the disease. By riding and sponsoring a team in the Tour de Cure, Katrina is supporting the American Diabetes Association’s effort of providing information, advocacy, and research.

MetamorFitness is a fitness consulting business specializing in training people with or at risk for diabetes and heart disease in Manhattan. MetamorFitness trainers will come to the client’s home or office and design an individualized program the client can live with.
