Rise in Obesity leads to rise in diabetes

Diabetes is an ever growing issue for the medical practitioners. As per a medical report from UK it was found that every one out of ten person is suffering from diabetes. This is a worrying issue. This situation is a big problem for UK. Barbara Young, the chief executive of Diabetes UK, explains, “It is truly alarming that there is now somewhere in England where more than one in ten of the people have diabetes. Given that the increase in cases is mainly due to a sharp rise in type2 diabetes, the only way we will finally bring the increase under control is by getting much better at preventing cases of type 2. A vital first step is to ensure that people realize how serious it is and understand their own personal risk so if they are at high risk they can make the simple lifestyle changes that can help prevent it.”
