Cost of Diabetes

I was trying to look at the  total world cost of Diabetes and  have not found good numbers

The Cost of Diabetes

The American Diabetes Association (Association) released new research on March 22, 2018 estimating the total costs of diagnosed diabetes have risen to $327 billion in 2017 from $245 billion in 2012, when the cost was last examined.

This figure represents a 26 percent increase over a five-year period.

The study, Economic Costs of Diabetes in the U.S. in 2017, was commissioned by the Association and addresses the increased financial burden, health resources used and lost productivity associated with diabetes in 2017. The study includes a detailed breakdown of costs along gender, racial and ethnic lines, and also includes a breakdown of costs on a state-by-state basis

Thoughts make a person. Without an exception all great people have had great ideals. It's a pity that in name of entertainment our kids are being exposed to such movies where criminals are being whitewashed. It's another thing to forgive people and another to treat them as ideals.

మధుమేహం కన్ను -రెటీనా గురించి

సంవత్సరానికి ఒక్కసారి. కేవలం బ్లడ్‌షుగర్‌ పరీక్షలు చేయిస్తే చాలధు.

ప్రతి సంవత్సరం కళ్ళు, కిడ్నీలు, గుండె,కాలేయం, నరాలు, పాదాలు పరీక్షల్ని చేయించుకుంటూ
జాగ్రత్త పడాలి.


ఒకటి మాత్రం అందరూ గుర్తుంచుకోవాలి మధుమేహం అధుపులో లేనివాళ్ళలో ఈ అవయవాలు
నిశ్శబ్దంగా దెబ్బతింటాయి. అది బయటపడే సరికి సమయం దాటి పోతుంది.
