WORLD DIABETES DAY

Today is World Diabetes Day.

Did you know that diabetes is the fourth most common cause of death in Europe? 

32 million EU adults had diabetes in 2013. This number could rise to 38 million by 2035.

The EU is working to help prevent chronic diseases such as diabetes through measures like the EU platform for action on diet, physical activity and health.

This is a forum for European-level organisations, ranging from the food industry to consumer protection NGOs, willing to commit to tackling current trends in diet and physical activity.
