Diabetes is a metabolic disease that causes high blood sugar. According to the international Diabetes Federation, 12% of the South African adult population is known to have diabetes.
The challenge is that more than half of diabetics are undiagnosed - they don't even know they have it. Diabetes is also the second highest underlying cause of death according to STATS SA. If left untreated it can cause a multitude of health concerns, such as impaired vision, nerve damage and kidney damage.
A healthy diet that includes supplementation, as well as psychical activity and maintaining a healthy weigh is important for the prevention of diabetes. Sometimes this alone is not enough and your healthcare practitioner may decide on medication to help lower your blood sugar levels. Along with these treatments, supplements can be taken to help control blood sugar levels and help prevent diabetes-related complications.
