Recently, it was revealed that as many as 1 in 6 El Pasoans live with diabetes. In addition, many El Pasoans have diabetes but do not know it due to limited health care access. Still, many more are at risk of developing diabetes over the next few months due to an unhealthy lifestyle. Alarmingly, children are now diagnosed with 'adult onset diabetes.'
Diabetes and its complications are preventable in most cases but it takes dedication, education, and perseverance.
El Paso's Diabetes Association provides customized services for the person interested in learning about diabetes management and prevention. We are committed to decreasing the incidence of diabetes in El Paso.
