This month, the American Diabetes Association observes American Diabetes Month. The ADA says that 57 million Americans are at risk for type 2 diabetes, and that 1 out of every 3 children born today will face a future with diabetes if current trends continue.
Being overweight and leading a sedentary lifestyle are both big risk factors for type 2 diabetes. If you or someone in your family falls into one of these groups, resolve to make some changes now.
