English-language soap operas often depict characters as martini-loving bon vivants who apparently don't need to hold down jobs. The Latino counterparts of soap operas, called ?telenovelas? also tend to portray unlikely situations ? and neither version is known for pushing healthy lifestyles.
But the popularity of the telenovela among Latinas made it a good learning tool for a recently published three-year study on a successful diabetes-prevention program created by researchers at the University of Massachusetts Medical School.
