What is Diabetes?
Diabetes Australia describes diabetes as:
‘Diabetes is a serious complex condition which can affect the entire body. Diabetes requires daily selfcare and if complications develop, diabetes can have a significant impact on quality of life and can reduce life expectancy. While there is currently no cure for diabetes, you can live an enjoyable life by learning about the condition and effectively managing it.’
Why is Diabetes on the Rise?
Whereas all types of diabetes, type 1, type 2 and gestational, are increasing, it’s type2 that’s increasing the most. In fact, type 2 accounts for 85% of all diabetes cases. Increasing Type 2 diabetes is largely a consequence of Australia’s obesity epidemic. But it’s not just an issue in Australia, it’s a global epidemic. It’s essential that suffers follow a sensible diabetes management program.
