A Promise for a Cure.
Type 1 diabetes is devastating
On average type 1 shortens life by 15 years.
Diagnosis is most common in youth between 5 and 9, however, adolescence and adult cases of type 1 diabetes are on the increase.
Type 1 diabetics live with more than 1500 needle pricks a year just to stay alive - but this is not a cure - there is no cure.
There are 246 million people worldwide with type 1 diabetes - most of them are children.
This number is expected to rise to 380 million by 2025.
This could be you or someone in your family.
Cyclebetes is delivering on a promise to cure type 1 diabetes.
A cure is close.... help deliver on a promise.
