Recognizing Type 2 Diabetes – Diabetes Series

By Global Health Media Project: https://globalhealthmedia.org

Many people have type 2 diabetes but don’t know it. Early symptoms are often hard to recognize. They may be mild or you may not have any symptoms at all. This video describes why it is important to get checked and how a simple blood test can tell if you have diabetes.

This video is one of over 30 videos in our series on diabetes prevention and care. The videos are targeted for three audiences: health care workers – to help guide providers in developing countries in good diabetes care; people with diabetes – to improve their knowledge and home care; and the general public – to increase their understanding of diabetes, with the aim of greater awareness of the risks and symptoms, and ways to prevent type 2 diabetes.
