Is Diabetes Underdiagnosed?

this is a horrible fact the blood sugar

curves that are used to diagnose you as

diabetic when you're 20 are age adjusted

as you age so if you take the typical

60-year-old and use the 20-year-old

curves many of the average 60-year-olds

would be diabetic by 20-year-old

standards or pre-diabetic which means

they're pre-diabetic like there's no

reason for those curves to be age

adjusted as far as I can tell and so

that means that diabetes as a factor

among people 60 and older is radically

underdiagnosed and if diabetes is a risk

factor for dementia which we know I've

heard dementia referred to it's got to

be for at least 20 years by people in

the know as type 3 diabetes
