Diabetes – "The Silent Killer"
. . . Over 300 Million cases globally!
Over 17 million Americans have diabetes and another million cases are being diagnosed every year! If you think those numbers disturbing, you’re not alone.
The Atlanta Center for Disease Control attributes the growing numbers to lifestyle - obesity and lack of physical activity particularly among people in their 30s.But, what is even worse is that health experts say that is probably not an true estimate and in fact diseases numbers could be much higher.
It is a very insidious disease.Patients can have the disease for years, sometimes decades, before the symptoms become obvious.You may even call it the hidden or “stealth” disease.
In fact, the numbers listed above could very well be wrong.It is very common for diabetes to exist undetected for as long as 12 years before diagnosis.
The onset of symptoms can be extremely gradual.Unfortunately, some people are not diagnosed early enough and therefore suffer from the effects of diabetes including:
- Heart disease
- Amputation
- Kidney disease
- Loss of sight and blindness
