About Diabetes
According to the International Diabetes Federation¹ nearly half a billion (463 million) adults worldwide are currently living with diabetes; by 2045 this number will rise to 700 million. The most common form is type 2 diabetes, accounting for around 90% of all diabetes cases. Over 50% of type 2 diabetes is preventable². 79% of adults with diabetes are living in low- and middle-income countries that often do not have adequate resources to address diabetes-related challenges. Especially in these countries, the Accu-Chek SugarView app can help to overcome limitations in an innovative way.
