You’re not alone
Diabetes is a challenging disease that affects nearly 17 million Americans. The good news is that many cases of adult-onset, type 2 diabetes are preventable. Although you can’t cure it, you can successfully control the disease with medication, diet and exercise.
Diabetes awareness
Knowing whether you have diabetes or are at risk for developing it is the first step in controlling or avoiding the complications that often result when diabetes goes undiagnosed or unmanaged.
If you think you or a loved one may be at risk, take this Diabetes Risk Quiz.
