Don’t Let Diabetes Ruin Your Life
August 30th, 2010 AdminDiabetes mellitus is a group of diseases share the common characteristic of hyperglycemia. Diabetes occurs when the pancreas can not produce enough insulin or when the insulin that is produced in the pancreas can not function adequately. When diabetes is not well controlled, it can cause serious complications and premature death.
I ask health professionals all the time about people who have come for routine health checks just learned to their surprise, they have Type I or II diabetes. Thirty years, Tom was admitted for injuries all over his body simply to walk all day at Disneyland with his family. He was then informed that he had acute diabetes and must be in a wheelchair.
And today, with continuous increase in the number of people with diabetes in the USA is alarming and many people like Tom did not even know they had until it was too late. There are nearly 21 million people only in USA who have diabetes, most of them type 2. This represents about 7 percent of the population and more than 6 million of these people do not know they have the condition, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
