diabetes health disparities

Diabetes health disparities refer to the uneven distribution of diabetes prevalence, treatment, and outcomes among different groups, often influenced by factors like race, socioeconomic status, and geography. Some populations face higher risks due to limited access to healthcare, healthy foods, and education about managing diabetes. These disparities lead to worse health outcomes, including more complications and higher mortality rates. Addressing these differences involves improving equitable access to prevention, treatment, and resources so all individuals can better manage diabetes and achieve healthier lives.
