Once you understand the effects of diabetes, you may want to learn the causes.

Well executed ad and pretty straightforward. Its a pity though, that they tried to be clever towards the end, by putting Braille text signifying blindness (diabetes can cause loss of sight). It looks like most people didn’t get that bit.

It is great to see advertising that shows a purpose. This ad gives a dual message in a very creative and eye catching manner. The viewer will never know what the rest of the ad really reads however the addition of the Braille type just sums it all up.
