世界糖尿病日，World Diabetes Day
世界糖尿病日在每年 11 月 14 日，由世界卫生组织和国际糖尿病联盟于 1991 年共同发起，后成为联合国官方纪念日。
糖尿病是一种常见的慢性疾病，如果长期控制不好，会损害眼睛、肾脏、心脏等器官，带来严重并发症。
近年来全球糖尿病患者数量持续增多，已经成为重要的公共卫生难题。设立这个纪念日，目的是提升大众对糖尿病的认识，普及预防、筛查和规范管理的相关知识。
健康饮食、坚持运动、控制体重，能够帮助我们降低患病风险。它也呼吁人们多多关注糖尿病患者，保障他们获得持续的医疗服务。早发现、科学管理，才能减少疾病带来的伤害，守护长期健康。
World Diabetes Day falls on November 14. It was started by the World Health Organization and the International Diabetes Federation in 1991.
Later, it became an official UN observance day.
Diabetes is a common chronic illness. If it is not well controlled for a long time, it will harm organs such as eyes, kidneys and hearts and cause serious health problems.
The number of people with diabetes around the world keeps rising, and it has become a big public health challenge. This day helps people know more about diabetes.
It spreads knowledge about prevention, early checks and proper disease management. Healthy eating, regular exercise and keeping a proper weight can lower our risk.
It also calls on us to care for people living with diabetes and make sure they can get medical help. Early discovery and good management reduce harm and keep us healthy.
