Diabetes is a global health crisis, but its impact on South Asians is particularly severe. South Asians are up to four times more likely to develop type 2 diabetes than people of European ancestry, often 10 years earlier, and across South Asia, over 100 million adults currently live with diabetes, a number expected to rise by more than 70% by 2050.
