Diabetes is often referred to as the silent killer. Millions of people
go about their daily routines, unaware that their blood sugar levels
could be too high, leading them down a path of complications caused
by diabetes. There are however, various forms of Diabetes. The doc-
tors at Canby Clinic can help determine if you have diabetes and help
you prevent the complications.
The complications that can result from diabetes are often irre-
versible. Years of elevated blood sugar can cause a heart attack,
stroke, neurological damage, loss of vision, or a weakened immune
system. Diabetics also have a higher risk for infection and cancer
because bacteria and yeast love sugar, as do all
cancer cells.
With diabetes, prevention is key. At Canby Clinic
we can run a simple blood test to reveal your
blood sugar status. Dr. Tuttle and Dr.Walker can
also help you understand the ways that different
foods can affect your blood sugar, by helping you
focus your diet on whole foods and limiting simple
carbohydrates. In addition to
enjoying a healthy diet, exer-
cising and maintaining an
optimal body weight are cru-
cial. Certain nutrients like
alpha lipoic acid and B vita-
mins are also beneficial
because they affect how the
body metabolizes sugar, while
herbs like gymnema, bitter
melon, and cinnamon can be extremely effective
in optimizing blood sugar levels. The doctors at
Canby Clinic can help you find the right combina-
tion of nutrients and herbs, helping you achieve
control.

Here we are facing another Fall in the beautiful Pacific Northwest,
and I think we can all agree that the end of Summer is always bitter-
sweet. Gone are sunny days filled with swimming pools, bike rides, and
BBQ’s, but in their place we can look forward to the prospect of haunt-
ed houses, pumpkin patches and watching the leaves on the trees turn
from green to gold.
With the change of seasons we also find ourselves needing to put
away all those summer essentials and start bringing out the things that
keep us warm and cozy through the cooler, crisper days of October and
November.
The problem we all some-
times encounter is that with the
end of each season most of
those “Seasonal” items can end
up crowding our closets and
garages. This can be frustrating,
especially when most likely we
won’t even need them again
until that season rolls around
next year.Whether intended for
Spring, Summer, Fall, or Winter,
these items are wonderful can-
didates for Self Storage
because they can be quickly taken from your unit to your home as your
needs change throughout the year. This lessens the amount of “stuff”
cluttering your personal space, but keeps the things you are using
every day easily accessible.
Here is a list of items you might consider putting in Storage for sea-
sonal use:
-Outdoor Furniture
-Seasonal Clothing
-Lawn Tools
-Recreational Equipment (Boats, jet skis, Pool Supplies, Bikes, and
ATV’s)
-Holiday Decorations
-Serving Dishes, Seasonal linens, & Party items
Those are just a few ideas, but if you take a little time to make your
own list, we’re sure you’ll see how much of your space you can free up.
Whenever you’re ready, the managers at any of your local Northwest
Self Storage locations can help you find a size that’s right for you.
