Diabetes: the silent pandemic and its impact on Australia is a new
report by the Baker IDI Heart and Diabetes Institute which
investigates why growing numbers of Australians are diagnosed with this chronic
disorder each year.
As there is
currently no cure for diabetes, the condition requires lifelong management. People with diabetes frequently also require
treatment to lower cholesterol and blood pressure levels. However, despite
reaching epidemic levels globally, type 2 diabetes remains under-reported, in
part because often people do not realise they have it until they develop
complications.
