November 14, is World Diabetes Day, and at Clearbridge, we want to take this opportunity to raise awareness about diabetes, a pressing global health issue. Did you know that over 400 million people worldwide are living with diabetes? 🌎 This staggering figure is expected to grow in the coming years, making awareness and education more critical than ever. 🙏
What is Diabetes?
Diabetes is a chronic condition in which the body cannot properly regulate blood sugar levels. This happens for one of two reasons:
Type 1 Diabetes: The body does not produce enough insulin.
Type 2 Diabetes: The body does not respond properly to insulin.
Both types can have serious health consequences if left untreated, including heart disease, kidney damage, nerve damage, and vision problems. 🩸💉
Recognizing the Symptoms
Common symptoms of diabetes include:
Frequent urination
Excessive thirst
Extreme hunger
Unexplained weight loss
Fatigue
Blurred vision
Slow healing of wounds
If you or someone you know is experiencing these symptoms, it’s essential to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment. Early detection can make a significant difference in managing the condition and improving quality of life. 💪

The good news is that with proper education, lifestyle changes, and medical support, diabetes can be effectively managed. Individuals with diabetes can lead full, healthy lives.
