Take the test you can’t fail. Get moving for 14 minutes – walking, gardening, skating, biking, dancing, trampolining – and watch your blood sugar come down. That’s the power of movement on your blood glucose. If you have type 2 diabetes, it’s one of the few ways to bring down high blood sugar.

The Big Blue Test is a grassroots movement begun 7 years ago by the Diabetes Hands Foundation. Big Blue is a way for people with diabetes to see in minutes the value of exercise. And it’s a way to benefit those less fortunate. By recording your blood sugar before and after your 14 minutes of movement, $1 will be donated to people with diabetes living in need. Thousands of dollars, have been raised. Vital supplies have been given. Let your effort help someone who may not even have access to medicine.

Log in, take the test. Do a little good today for yourself – and someone else.
