Diabetes Plague in Australia and World-wide

Diabetes Plague in Australia and World-wide

The modern plague of diabetes ( type 2 ) is growing at an alarming rate, and will
only get worse. with obesity levels being at an all time high and diabetes a leading cause of death,

Results of the Australian Diabetes, Obesity and Life Study released April 2001 show that nearly one–in-four Australian adults has either diabetes or impaired glucose metabolism, both of which are associated with substantial increased risk of both diabetes and heart disease.

Problems of untreated diabetes puts us at a terrible risk
of complications,  such as blindness, amputations
and ultimately death.

The figures show people are now living longer, and this has
been so for some years.The 20th century showed this was a world-wide phenomenon, but this will not continue, and
is in danger of reversing, if type 2 diabetes is not put under control.

It is the sixth highest cause of death by disease in Australia and Type 2 diabetes is Australia’s fastest growing chronic disease. with about 1,500 people diagnosed every week.

We are a lazy and unfortunately also gluttonous society
and ultimately it is affecting adversely our lifestyles and longevity.

The diabetes epidemic is not just a First World
problem. It is currently worldwide with epidemic reports in
Asia, the Middle East and the Caribbean. Modern diet and lifestyles are affecting the entire human race.

It is estimated that by 2025, the number of diabetics
worldwide will rise to 380 million with diabetes now
affecting more of the young and middle-aged population in
developing countries between the ages of 40 and 59.

So listen to the professionals – not knowing if you have diabetes is perhaps the worst side-effect of not having regular medical checks because the fact is, that type 2 diabetes is almost completely
preventable. Doctors say the way to stop it is to eat better, eat less,  and
exercise more. You have only take a waklk in a modern city to see how many people are
currently overweight and even morbidly overweight. Morbid means likely to die from it!
