Prevention of Diabetes in Cuba's Health Agenda |
|
|
Monday, November 24, 2014
Havana.- The prevention of diabetes mellitus is a priority in Cuba's healthcare system, considering the high incidence of that disease in the country.
In central Sancti Spíritus province, 13.6 percent of the population is diabetic, while 25 percent suffers from the so-called prediabetic syndrome.
As part of actions to fight diabetes, an active inquiry was carried out this month in Sancti Spíritus to detect new cases in an early stage of the disease.
In addition, experts give lectures about the importance of a healthy diet, good nutritional habits and good care for people who live with the disease.
Prevention is carried out by the Center for Integral Care to Diabetic Patients, an institution that treats diabetic patients.
