These are numbers from 2014:
29.1 Million Americans have Diabetes - are you one of them? If so are you taking your meds, exercising and eating a healthy diet?
86 Million Americans have Prediabetes - are you one of them? If so are you doing everything the doctor tells you to take care of your health?
$245 Million is the annual cost in America of diabetes caused lost wages and diabetes medications.
Did you know that 1 in 4 Americans over the age of 65 have diabetes?
If you fall into either of the above catagories or if you have a family history of diabetes I suggest you pay attention to your health by eating a healthy diet, exercising - something as simple as walking will do, and faithfully take any medications your doctor prescribes. Complications from diabetes are serious but with proper meds and taking care of yourself you can live a normal life.
