Did you know - South Asians have 4X the incidence of type 2 diabetes compared to the general population in the world?

Diabetes, high in Asian Indians (17% women, 25% men), can lead to serious health complications like blindness, kidney failure, heart disease, stroke, or loss of toes, feet and legs.

Diabetes can be prevented or reversed. Research at NIH demonstrated that lifestyle education is 2X more effective in reducing incidence of diabetes compared to Metformin, the leading diabetes medication

Indiaspora, a nonprofit organization, based in CA invites you to join for "Sweet Truths: Understanding Diabetes in South Asian Communities", a timely and important conversation about the disproportionate impact of type 2 diabetes on South Asians here and around the world.

Join on Wednesday, January 21st
