Americans of all ages, even young children,
are more overweight and less active than previous generations, which puts
them at greater risk for diabetes.
Recent estimates from the American Diabetic Association state that over 20.8 million children
and adults suffer from diabetes. Yet up to 1/3rd of them don't even know they have it.
54 million Americans are pre-diabetic, with still more suffering from metabolic syndrome.
As yet, there is NO CURE for diabetes.
There is only a holding operation to try to manage the disease,
and avoid its many life-altering and even life-threatening complications.
Similar measures can benefit you if you keep the
disease under control even if you already have diabetes.
All this invaluable diabetes information is available to you right now as an instant download:

"Why worry about diabetes?" you might ask. Here are just a few reasons to consider:
- Heart disease and stroke account for more than 65% of deaths in people with diabetes.
- Adults with diabetes have heart disease death rates about 2 to 4 times higher than adults without diabetes.
- The risk for stroke is 2 to 4 times higher, and the risk of death from stroke is 2.8 times higher among people with diabetes.
- About 73% of adults with diabetes have high blood pressure.
- Men with diabetes are 2 times more likely to experience erectile dysfunction as men without diabetes.
- Diabetic retinopathy causes 12,000 to 24,000 new cases of blindness each year.
- Diabetes is the leading cause of kidney failure (diabetic nephropathy) in the US, accounting for 44% of new cases in 2002. Mexican-Americans are 4.5 to 6.6 times more likely, and American Indians are 6 times more likely to suffer from kidney disease.
- 60% to 70% of people with diabetes have mild to severe forms of nervous system damage (diabetic neuropathy). The results of such damage include impaired sensation or pain in the feet or hands, carpal tunnel syndrome, and other nerve problems.
