Diabetes: A global problem

Earlier this morning I wrote about opportunities created by the spread of diabetes. I forgot to mention – not sure why – that in India and China that “the prevalence of diabetes is expected to double by 2025″ and that “between 15 and 20 percent of their adult population will develop the disease,” according to study conducted by Stanford University’s School of Medicine. The study found that there might be a shortage of essential medication needed to fight the growing epidemic.

    In many cases, the best medication is to stop eating salty, fatty and sugary food “products” and focus on nutrition.
