November 14 marks World Diabetes Day 2025. According to the latest International Diabetes Federation (IDF) report, 1 out of 9 adults is living with diabetes as of 2025, and 40% of them are unaware that they even have diabetes. The majority of these adults reside in low- and middle-income countries, such as Bangladesh.
Pre-diabetes is a warning but reversible stage where lifestyle changes can prevent diabetes. Reducing refined carbs, exercising, managing stress, and monitoring blood sugar regularly can delay onset. Awareness, diet, and discipline protect long-term health.
Winter in Bangladesh presents unique challenges for those living with diabetes. Naturally, during colds, patients with diabetes utilise more calories and remain in good glycaemia.
Diabetes is one of those health conditions that often sneaks up on you silently. Many people can have early symptoms without realising what is going on. Picking the signs early can help you manage blood sugar levels and potentially delay or even prevent it from progressing into full-blown diabetes.
