American Diabetes Month Diabetes is one of the leading causes of disability and death in the United States. It can cause blindness, nerve damage, kidney disease, and other health problems if it’s not controlled. One in 11 Americans have diabetes — that’s more than 29 million people. And another 86 million adults in the United States are at high risk of developing type 2 diabetes. The good news?

These changes include: eating healthy, increasing physical activity, and losing weight. How can American Diabetes Month make a difference?
