Diabetes is on the increase in all age groups and is described by
the World Health Organisation as an epidemic. The good news is that
effective control can greatly improve life expectancy, as well as
reducing the risk of complications such as cardiovascular disease,
stroke, kidney disease and blindness. This book explains how to
tackle type one diabetes in adults and teenagers; it also looks at
type two diabetes and explains why the dividing line between types
one and two is not always easy to draw. Topics include: Late-onset
type one diabetes; Organising your insulin; Pumps and transplants;
Type two diabetes and the metabolic syndrome; Why so many more
people with type two diabetes now need insulin for control;
Managing type two diabetes - keeping the glucose levels down; Diet
and weight control; Why you mustn't smoke - and how to stop if you
do; Preventing complications; Diabetes in pregnancy.
