Undiagnosed Diabetes Down Among Men

Well at least there is one thing on the up and up in the way of diabetes treatment and management. It seems that US men have taken it upon themselves to be “screened” and to then follow through on diabetic treatment.

In the 1970’s nearly half of diabetic men didn’t know that they had diabetes or even what would have caused it. Now, only one fifth of US men are in that same category. And thank goodness. It is great to see men take responsibility for their health and future. Maybe it is a new generation? Good health and all that goes along with it isn’t looked at as feminine or belittling like it was in the mid 1900’s. Men can be vulnerable and strong! Good job men!!!
