More than 750,000 inhabitants of the Czech Republic suffer from diabetes. It is estimated that another 250,000 people are still unaware of their illness. Do you know that the first 5 years of treatment are most important to compensate diabetes?
The roadshow "Diabetes, measure your risks!" will be held at every place in the Czech Republic under the supervision of qualified medical personnel. Nurses and nutritionists will evaluate your results on the spot and recommend appropriate next steps. Interested persons will have the opportunity to get answers to questions related to diabetes and opportunities of effective prevention. All measurements take place under strict hygienic standards.
"The results of extensive scientific studies clearly show that the sooner you detect type 2 diabetes, starting and ongoing quietly, and the sooner you treat it intensively, the less damage in the body it can do", Professor MUDr. Milan Kvapil, CSc., MBA, president of the Diabetic Association of the Czech Republic, emphasized.
