Diabetes in Europe: 1 in 10 people will live with diabetes by 2045

Diabetes has become a major public health problem globally, and forecasts for the coming decades suggest an alarming increase in the number of people affected. According to World Health Organization estimates, by 2045, about 1 in 10 Europeans will live with diabetes, a statistic that raises serious questions about how society, the health system and individuals need to adapt to this reality.

A growing problem

Diabetes, especially type 2 diabetes, is often linked to the modern lifestyle, characterized by an unhealthy diet, lack of physical activity and obesity. These factors contribute to increasing the number of people who develop this chronic condition. In Europe, the number of people with diabetes is estimated to exceed 60 million by 2045, which is a huge challenge for health systems.

Impact on public health

Increasing the incidence of diabetes has major implications for public health. Diabetes affects not only the quality of life of patients, but also the costs associated with treatments and complications that can occur, such as cardiovascular disease, kidney failure or vision problems. Expenditure on diabetes is expected to continue to rise, putting additional pressure on national budgets and health systems.

Awareness and prevention

In the face of this alarming statistics, it is essential to take proactive measures to prevent and manage diabetes. Awareness of the risks associated with sedentary lifestyle and unhealthy eating is crucial. Health education campaigns can help promote healthy habits and reduce the incidence of diabetes.

It is also important that doctors are prepared to diagnose and treat diabetes as soon as possible. Access to accurate and up-to-date information is essential for healthcare professionals. Platforms as well Diabeta plays a vital role in providing useful resources and information for both specialists and patients.
