Sugar Smart Family #2

Diabetes Singapore conducted a community intervention workshop under its flagship Sugar Smart Families initiative on Saturday, 3 October 2026, from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM at Taman Jurong Community Centre. Supported by sponsor Gardenia, the session forms a core component of Diabetes Singapore’s 12-month direct household intervention roadmap to foster sustainable behavioural change and chronic disease prevention within local families.

The interactive workshop brought parents and children together to learn practical blood glucose management strategies, evaluate nutrition labels, and adopt healthier dietary habits. With support from Gardenia, participants were introduced to low-glycaemic index (GI) and high-fibre whole grain options, highlighting simple, nutritious food swaps to maintain balanced blood sugar levels within the household.
