Diabetes Information |
The World Health Organization has estimated that by the year
2010, more than 230 million people will be diagnosed with diabetes
worldwide. Of that, 3 million will be in Canada, with approximately
59,000 in Saskatchewan alone. The scarier statistic is that an
estimated 1/3 more of the population is believed to have undiagnosed
diabetes.
The purpose of this page is to provide you with credible sources
of information, so that you are able to educate yourself on diabetes
and its prevention.
