per cent bake cookies and bis

100000 Diubetics

Public health workers have al
ways suspected that there were
many cases of undetected and un-
treated diabetes in the country
How many, no one knew until q
few years ago.
Credit for establishing the wide
~ accepted figure of 100000 I'M
known diabetes is due the U. ).
Public Health Service.
AS a result of a careful survey
and long investigation into dia-
betes, they were able to make the
shocking estimate that for every
four known cases, there may be
three others undiscovered.
The physical symptoms of dia-
betes are quite obvious - so OBJ
vious that ii may seem impos-
sible for a person to have the dis
ease without knowing it. The
symptoms 80 hunger, unquench-
able thirst, loss of weight, fatigue
and excessive urination are
easily recognized.
However, many diabetes have
some of these symptoms in such
a mild form that they are missed.
Hunger, thirst, and excessive uri-
nation do not always mean the
presence of diabetes.
A physician can make an accur-
ate diagnosis because diabetes al
ways produces two clues to its
presence: sugar in the urine and
high blood sugar reading.
Once diabetes is discovered
early and treated with insulin and
proper diet, the ravages of the
disease are halted. Less than 20
ago. before the discovery OF
insulin and modern medical know
ledge, a diabetic can live a long
and useful life.
For their own benefit, and that
of their families, the 100000 un-
known diabetes ought surely to be
and brought under
treatment.
