                    [Summary] => According to the 2004 National Nutrition and Health Survey, there are almost four million Filipinos who are suffering from diabetes.  


These people are constantly in danger of succumbing to the disease’s complications such as Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD).


PAD, whose primary risk factor is diabetes, is a problem with blood flow in the arteries. The disease causes the arteries that normally supply blood to the muscle to get narrow or blocked so that less blood can flow through the artery.
