According to Statistics from Diabetes SA we currently have approximately 6.5 million diabetics in South Africa, only 8 000 of whom are registered with DSA (Diabetes SA).

Approximately 85 – 90% of all people with diabetes are type 2, and many people who have this condition are undiagnosed! Thus, the urgent need for more active awareness.

November is International Diabetes Awareness month.  Head down to over a 1000 pharmacies and any Shoprite/Checkers MediRite pharmacy and Get tested!! Tests from as little as R 5 Bucks!!
