Default The Role of Morbid Obesity in Diabetes

The Role of Morbid Obesity in Diabetes
It’s no secret – the American population is growing. This growth is not just in numbers, but also in total size. New reports indicate that 1/5th of all Type 2 diabetics are morbidly obese. What’s the cause for this growth and how can we make changes?

DiabetesInControl suggests, “Among the reasons for the increase in obesity among diabetics and the overall population are inexpensive food, larger portion sizes and consumption of sugary soda.”
