Diabetes is a chronic illness that many Thais are increasingly suffering from. According to information from the Ministry of Public Health of Thailand, it was found that there were 3.3 million people suffering from diabetes in 2022 as compared to the 150,000 people in 2021. Global statistics have shown that there were 537 million people with diabetes in 2021, and it is expected that in 2030, this number will increase to 643 million. In particular, those living more risky lifestyles without paying attention to their health are more prone to diabetes. Are you one of those at higher risk? Let’s check out the signs and symptoms of diabetes together!

Do you know who is at risk of diabetes?
Diabetes is a silent danger that is not only caused by our daily lifestyles, but there exists certain groups of people who pose greater risk than normal; this does not just stem from addiction to sweets. Find out how much you are at risk of diabetes by looking at whether you fall into the following groups:
- Ages 40 years and over
- People with high levels of fat in the blood
- High blood pressure
- Have family members or direct relatives with diabetes
- Are obese or weigh above average
Wouldn’t it be better if diabetes could be prevented even before symptoms arise?
Diabetes is a disease that silently develops. If you are the type to live life as you please, consume food that is high in sugar or carbohydrates, regularly drink alcohol, as well as lack exercise, then you are at higher risk of diabetes. Dangerous symptoms from this disease often result in inflammation of the blood vessels, so wouldn’t it be better if we could restore and protect the body’s health at a cellular level? This is to allow the body to repair itself before symptoms spread and become diabetes.
Nowadays, stem cells are still considered an alternative to rejuvenate and holistically care for the body. This includes prevention of potentially developing diabetes in the future where “Stem Cell Therapy” technology uses Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSC) extracted from the placenta, placental sac, or umbilical cord tissue that has the ability to repair and restore the functioning of various types of organ cells caused by deterioration or abnormality. When injected, the body secretes biological substances to stimulate neighboring cells and stem cells to divide or increase in number. In particular, for those at risk of diabetes who must pay attention to taking care of the body’s overall system and maintain balance in blood sugar levels at all times. Stem cells’ ability to treat diabetes or rejuvenate the body of those at risk are as follows:
- Repairs blood vessels around wounds to speed up wound healing
- Reduces infections and effectively prevents wound recurrence in diabetics
- Regulates sugar metabolism and helps to manage complications from diabetes
- Stimulates cell division to increase the body’s overall functioning
