Diabetes is currently one of the fastest growing health crises in the world. In our efforts to raise awareness of diabetes, I would like to make a series of videos to discuss:
- What is Diabetes? (From a Modern Medicine and Traditional Chinese Medicine perspective)
- Diabetes Prevention
- Treatment and Remedies
- Dealing with Diabetes Complications

In the last two videos, I have explained what is diabetes from a Modern Medicine and a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) standpoint. So in this video I will start to talk about more practical applications in preventing and treating diabetes.
