Dear `firstname`

A six-year study by the University of Szeged in Hungary last year suggested a correlation between type 2 diabetes and the month of March. The study looked at 26,600 people with type 2 diabetes and found that new cases were almost 50 percent more likely to occur in March than in August. The likely culprit is winter, which impedes healthy habits with colder temperatures, more food, and less physical activity and sun time. Get ready to step into spring with these rd.com guides:
