ISSUE

Diabetes is one of the top 10 causes of deaths in Singapore. In 2021, Ministry of Health stated that locally, 1 in 3 individuals are at a risk of developing diabetes in their lifetime.

If nothing is done, by 2050, it is estimated that about 1/5th of the population in Singapore will have this health condition. Many diseases, majorly heart disease and stroke, are linked to diabetes. We want to focus on the prevention of diabetes
