ACCORDING TO A WHO REPORT: "Physical activity is the best remedy for Diabetes."

  According to studies by the World Health Organization (WHO), the number of people with diabetes went from 108 million in 1980 to 422 million in 2014, continuing to increase constantly. In recent years, it has been possible to perceive that in the countries with the lowest wages it has grown proportionally much more, there being a scale that goes down from less economic resources to the wealthiest sectors.

 Diabetes is a major cause of blindness, kidney failure, heart attack, stroke, and lower limb amputation. Between 2000 and 2019, age-standardized diabetes death rates increased by 3%. In 2019, diabetes and diabetic nephropathy caused 2.0 million deaths.

 A healthy diet, regular physical exercise, maintaining a normal weight, and avoiding tobacco use have been shown to prevent type 2 diabetes or delay its onset.

  It is possible to treat diabetes and avoid or delay its consequences through physical activity and a healthy diet, together with medication and regular testing.
