Diabetes to Triple in the U.S. by 2050
Tuesday, November 23, 2010 10:09America, “land of the free” – yeah, free to eat whatever we want, which isn’t exactly doing us any favors. Obesity epidemic, heart disease, cancer, high blood pressure, and diabetes… lots of diabetes.
And if we don’t kick our unhealthy habits, it’s going to get a lot worse.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warn if we continue to eat poorly and avoid exercise, one third of Americans will have diabetes by 2050.
