One billion at risk of diabetes
Approximately one billion people worldwide are facing prediabetes, a condition that can develop into diabetes if not managed properly. Risk factors such as obesity, physical inactivity, and poor nutrition increase the likelihood of progression, as disturbances in carbohydrate metabolism, high blood pressure, and heart disease elevate the risk further. Lack of movement and overeating are among the primary causes, especially since the daily activity level for many individuals doesn't exceed 5,000 to 7,000 steps, while reaching 15,000 or 20,000 steps per day is uncommon. Early detection and lifestyle modifications are recommended to prevent complications that may include blindness, kidney failure, heart attacks, and strokes, particularly in type 2 diabetes patients.
