#Diabetes is one of the most pressing #health challenges of our time, and it’s far more common than many people realize.

Today on NewsRadio KFBK, 93.1 FM and 1530 AM in Sacramento, with Cristina Mendonsa, we’re focusing on type 2 diabetes and prediabetes—conditions that are affecting our communities on a massive scale.

In the U.S., tens of millions of adults are living with type 2 diabetes, and many don’t even know they have it. On top of that, an estimated 115 million people are living with prediabetes. Of those, about 25% will go on to develop diabetes if nothing changes—meaning that nearly one in four people with #prediabetes is already on a fast track toward a full diabetes diagnosis, often without obvious symptoms.

In this episode, we unpack what those numbers really mean for individuals and families, and why they matter for anyone concerned about their long-term health. We’ll break down some of the early warning signs and symptoms of diabetes—like increased thirst, frequent urination, #fatigue, blurred vision, and slow-healing cuts or infections—and talk about what patients and consumers should be watching for. We’ll also discuss how these silent statistics translate into very real risks for heart disease, kidney problems, nerve damage, and more, and how recognizing prediabetes early can be a powerful opportunity to turn things around.

Whether you’ve been diagnosed, told you have prediabetes, or just want to understand your risk, this conversation will give you clear, practical insight into the growing epidemic of diabetes and what you can do about it.
