What countries have the most diabetics?

[Doc]

I found this interesting since I was listed as 'pre diabetic' for type II.
Quite a few countries are way ahead of USA in % of population with diabetes. Shocked me.

Countries with worst diabetes rates in world REVEALED

Our World in Data ranked Pakistan as the country with the highest rate of diabetes. However, despite scares about poor diets and sedentary lifestyles, the US and UK both ranked much lower.

I did similar. Good luck with your stress test and blood work. I've been successful at holding it off for a while now. You can do the same.

I wish you guys good luck with fighting it off. It's not a disease to mess around with.

Unfortunately, I couldn't. I've been Type 11 for the last 15 years or so. With meds I can keep it pretty much under control most of the time. I've still got all of my appendages so I can't be doing too badly. It's not just that, it's all the other things in your body that it affects.

I'm actually shocked myself that those countries have higher rates than us.
I always figured they have a healthier diet, but that doesn't necessarily fall into the overall equation.
