The event took place at the AACD Amphitheater and was aimed at diabetic patients and their families. Workshops were held with doctors, nurses, nutritionists and physiotherapists explaining how diabetes affects the body and what care is essential to prevent complications. The event was designed by the physiotherapy team at the AACD Rehabilitation Center and especially covered amputee patients. The physiotherapy activity simulated a large blood vessel with the changes that occur in the body. Engermagem focused on diabetic foot care. The doctors did a comic activity and in a playful way explained the physiological changes of diabetes and the practice of self-care. At that moment, many doubts arose and the doctors listened and answered them one by one. In the nutrition activity, the team showed several foods with the respective amounts of sugar that these foods contain. And it created a dynamic of myth or truth in relation to food and diabetes.
