Episode 212
- TCOYD TV: Taking Control of Your Diabetes- Coming Soon!
Taking Control of Your Diabetes series television wraps up its second season with an inspirational piece on TCOYD’s educational philosophy. Psychologist and TCOYD conference faculty member Joseph Nelson will talk to Dr. Edelman about the importance of equipping people with diabetes with the information and empowerment they need to control their condition. The experts acknowledge feelings of failure and shame frequently brought on by the daily challenges of the disease, and exacerbated by seemingly unsympathetic medical professionals. Interviews with TCOYD attendees, and TCOYD CME attendees reveal the impact that live educational conferences have on diabetes self-management, attitudes of medical providers toward their patients, and the gap TCOYD aims to bridge in doctor-patient respect, trust and communication.
Announcing Season Two Premiere, Taking Control of Your Diabetes Television
Del Mar, CA - September 12, 2007 - Taking Control of Your Diabetes, 501c3, (TCOYD), announced today that 12 new episodes of the Taking Control of Your Diabetes television series are in production for broadcast on educational access cable channels through the University of California, and DISH in most areas throughout the country. The half-hour, commercial-free programs features the dynamic and renowned diabetes specialist Steven V. Edelman, MD, as host. Building on the highly successful first season, Executive Producer, Heidi Rataj (Brooklyn South, Scratch, Cosby Show, The Building) said, "We are offering something that other educational health programming does not. Taking Control of Your Diabetes television evokes action - for those with and without diabetes."
Season two will present serious discussions on hypoglycemia, sleep apnea, insulin management and other conditions that affect both diabetic and non-diabetic populations along with more informal and humorous sides of life such as a kid's point-of-view of diabetes and traveling with diabetes. Season two presents a fresh new format of interview and personal stories along with a new set furnished by Crate & Barrel and new direction and editing from Tami Magaro (Black & Blue, Breakers, Pacifica Currents).
The premiere episode titled, "Hypoglycemia, the Risks and Realities of Low Blood Sugar" will air Thursday, September 20 at 9:30 p.m. For channel information in your area, visit www.tcoyd.org, or www.tcoyd.tv.
"The treatment of every topic we choose to cover on TCOYD TV recognizes the intricate interplay between diabetes and other diseases and complications," said Edelman. "The fact is people with diabetes frequently face other serious conditions that also affect millions of Americans without diabetes. Our goal is to provide unbiased, relevant and current information from top notch specialists on topics related to living with diabetes so that viewers can make choices today that positively impact their health."
TCOYD Television's audience is a knowledgeable base of health conscious viewers, some of whom are already highly involved in the nonprofit TCOYD, and the live events put on by Dr. Edelman and his team for those with diabetes, those at risk, and their families. The program reaches over 16.5 million viewers over the UCSD-TV and UCTV stations with additional markets including the Internet and DVD distribution.
