Chronic disease, particularly diabetes and cardiovascular issues, disproportionately affects the African American community, with nearly half of black adults facing these health challenges. Eric Adams, Brooklyn Borough President and mayoral candidate, shares his personal journey after experiencing severe vision loss linked to diabetes. Once reliant on fast food due to a demanding career as a police officer, Adams highlights the urgent need for healthier eating habits within his community and aims to address these critical health disparities.
