Oprah Winfrey is planning another giveaway, but this time it isn’t a new car.
Winfrey plans to announce on her show Thursday an offer that will help Americans get their blood sugar tested for free.
She’ll devote “The Oprah Winfrey Show” that day to the growing problem of diabetes. Dr. Mehmet Oz and other guests will talk about risk factors. They’ll recommend lifestyle changes and examine the hidden sugars in everyday meals and snacks.
The studio audience will be comprised of people with diabetes and their families.
Diabetes can cause serious health problems including heart disease, blindness, kidney failure and amputations. Diabetes is the sixth leading cause of death in the United States.
