WORLD DIABETES DAY - TOMORROW Do you know for sure that you do NOT have Diabetes? Like high blood pressure and high cholesterol, early diabetes may be present for a long time with no obvious symptoms. Undiagnosed and untreated diabetes can have devastating outcomes, ranging from disability to death. The vast majority of diabetes is Type 2, which is related to lifestyle choices. This is good news, because it means that you can have much control over its progression by making better choices : e.g. losing weight, eating correctly, exercising more and not smoking. If you are “pre-diabetic”, making the right choices can totally reverse things, so that you may not need any medication. A simple blood test is all it takes to diagnose diabetes. If you are overweight or have a family history of diabetes, or simply want to know, please talk to your doctor about diabetes testing and appropriate lifestyle advice. DO IT TODAY!
