1 DAY AGO - This World Diabetes Day (Thursday, 14 November), Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) are urging local residents to become familiar with the warning signs of Diabetes to try and spot the condition sooner.
Diabetes causes a person’s blood sugar level to become too high due to ineffective control by a hormone called insulin. There are two types of Diabetes:
• Type 1: Where the body’s immune system attacks and destroys the cells that produce insulin• Type 2: Where the body doesn’t produce enough insulin or the body’s cells don’t react to insulin. This is the most common type of Diabetes.
One in 11 adults has Diabetes, yet one in two people with Diabetes are undiagnosed. The condition can lead to other serious health problems including strokes, heart disease and early death.
To combat this risk, the ‘Healthier You’ NHS Diabetes Prevention Programme (NDPP) is a free local service for those who are at risk of developing type 2 Diabetes.
