Diabetes is a chronic disease that affects millions of people around the world, and it’s becoming increasingly common within our Hispanic community. Often, it shows no clear symptoms in the early stages, making it a silent enemy.
At Clínica Hispana Vida Sana, we want to help you detect and manage this condition early—because with the right care, it’s possible to live a healthy and active life.
What is diabetes and why is it dangerous?
Diabetes occurs when the body cannot properly regulate blood sugar levels. If left untreated, it can lead to serious complications such as:
- Heart disease
- Kidney problems
- Vision loss
- Nerve damage
- Poor circulation, which may lead to amputations
The most alarming part is that many people don’t know they have diabetes until damage has already occurred. That’s why regular check-ups are so important..
Are you at risk?
You may be at risk if:
- You have a family history of diabetes
- You are overweight or obese
- You don’t exercise regularly
- You have high blood pressure or high cholesterol
- You had diabetes during pregnancy
If any of these apply to you, it’s time for a health check.
