American Diabetes Month

November is American Diabetes Month

Diabetes affects over 500 million people worldwide.  Projections estimate this number to rise to 783 million globally by 2045.The stigma around diabetes makes conversations about risks difficult, but the American Diabetes Association (ADA) is looking to change that with their 2022 campaign: Today’s Diabetes Hits Different.  The campaign offers resources to those living with diabetes and those at risk of developing the disease, such as:

• Eye Health Resources 
• Diabetes-Friendly Recipes 
• Type 2 Diabetes Risk Test

Our Wellness Panel is designed to help physicians identify potential health concerns, including diabetes.
