Prevalence and Impact of Diabetes

Diabetes has become a significant global health issue, with over 463 million adults affected in 2019, projected to rise to 700 million by 2045. In the United States, around 40 million individuals have diabetes, while approximately 100 million are pre-diabetic, indicating that one in three people falls into this category. Pre-diabetes often goes unnoticed, leading to fatigue, weight gain, and increased risk of serious health complications, including autoimmune diseases and early aging. Thus, it's crucial to actively monitor and manage blood sugar levels to avoid these adverse health outcomes.
