The benefits for diabetics
Because a strong link exists between heart disease and other chronic conditions, the 4myheart program also helps those with diabetes.
| The American Heart Association considers diabetes to be 1 of 7 major controllable risk factors for cardiovascular disease. |
In the U.S., diabetes is a common problem. It occurs because of high blood sugar levels, either because there is not enough insulin or because the body’s cells do not respond properly to it.
Diabetes is a chronic condition, which means it will not go away once you have it. If left untreated, it can cause serious health problems, such as heart disease, stroke, blindness, kidney failure, and lower limb amputation. It’s better to work at preventing diabetes than to have to treat it.
