According to the American Diabetes Association, diabetes is a chronic disease that affects millions of lives, directly and indirectly, and has no cure.

With the incidence of Type 2 diabetes almost doubling over the past decade, there is no better time to communicate the seriousness of the disease... and no better time to salute those who help others manage the disease in their daily lives. More importantly, those affected need to be empowered with ways to manage their lives with proper diet and exercise.

That's why we created the "DFF: Diabetes Friends Forever" program. We wanted to recognize the extraordinary support that friends, family and healthcare professionals all over America are giving everyday to help.

Dreamfields Pasta invites people with diabetes to salute their DFFs and for DFFs themselves to participate and share what being a great supporter to someone with diabetes means to them. Click here to enter our ”Diabetes Friends Forever” program and you may win free pasta and other prizes.
