Fighting Diabetes: Taking Control
There are whole segments of the population who are genetically predisposed to Diabetes. Currently, there are 135 million people with Diabetes and by the year 2025, doctors are expecting this figure to more than double to over 300 million. Healthcare providers are warning us of a costly national epidemic.
Left untreated, Diabetes can be serious and life-threatening, but it is a very controllable disease. With the proper medical treatment, which varies by patient, people with Diabetes can live long, relatively normal lives. Diet, exercise and self-awareness are three major tools for fighting Diabetes.
Are you one of the people genetically predisposed for Diabetes? What can you do to change the tide to more healthful living?
FIGHTING DIABETES: Taking Control is Part II of a two-part hour-long documentary program produced in concert with The National Diabetes Education Program, The National Institutes of Health and The Centers for Disease Control as part of ITV¹s award-winning series, The Cutting Edge Medical Report. The show will air over The Fox Health Network, and is made possible by an unrestricted educational grant from Bristol-Myers Squibb.
