November 14 marks World Diabetes Day, highlighting a disease affecting hundreds of millions of people worldwide. This day aims to inform, raise awareness, and encourage everyone to adopt habits that promote better blood sugar regulation.
In this article, we review recent figures, the different types of diabetes, warning signs, screening methods, and the role that a natural supplement like Gramme 7's Anti-Pic can play in daily prevention.
- Key figures for diabetes worldwide
Diabetes is currently one of the most widespread metabolic diseases. The latest international estimates show an alarming progression:
- 589 million adults live with diabetes worldwide.
- This represents 11% of adults aged 20 to 79.
- By 2050, projections reach 853 million people.
- Nearly 50% of diabetic adults do not know they have it.
- Diabetes is responsible for approximately 3.4 million deaths each year.
These figures underscore the importance of screening and prevention.
- The different types of diabetes
Type 1 Diabetes
Autoimmune disease. The immune system destroys pancreatic cells, preventing insulin production. It often appears in children or young adults.
Type 2 Diabetes
The most common (over 90% of cases).
It results from insulin resistance or insufficient production.
It is strongly influenced by:
- overweight,
- sedentary lifestyle,
- a diet rich in simple sugars,
- age,
- heredity.
Gestational Diabetes
Appears during pregnancy. It increases the risk of developing type 2 diabetes later.
Rarer forms
Such as MODY, LADA, or secondary diabetes.
- Commonalities between the different types of diabetes
Even if their causes differ, all types of diabetes share several characteristics:
- Persistently high blood sugar.
- Risks of complications: cardiovascular, renal, neurological, ocular...
- The importance of screening to limit invisible but progressive damage.
- The central role of lifestyle: balanced diet, stress management, physical activity.
- How to know if you have diabetes?
⚠️ Symptoms that should trigger an alert
- Excessive thirst
- Frequent urges to urinate
- Persistent fatigue
- Blurred vision
- Unexplained weight loss
- Slow wound healing
🧪 Screening tests
A doctor can prescribe:
- Fasting blood glucose
- HbA1c (glycated hemoglobin)
- Oral glucose tolerance test
🎯 At-risk profiles
- family history
- overweight or obesity
- sedentary lifestyle
- high blood pressure and cholesterol
- very sugary diet
- pregnancy (risk of gestational diabetes)
Early screening allows action before complications arise.
