Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes are due to genes interacting with environmental triggers. However, different genes and different triggers cause these two types of diabetes. The environmental triggers for Type 1 diabetes are ubiquitous and, therefore, Type 1 diabetes cannot be prevented. Type 2 diabetes is largely preventable. In almost 90 per cent of cases, Type 2 diabetes is associated with overweight or obesity, which in part results from our "obesogenic" environment that is filled with junk food, fast food, sugar-sweetened beverages and items that promote sedentary behaviours. Dr. Francine Kaufman explains the obesity-diabetes epidemic that threatens North America in her book Diabesity. Type 2 diabetes that used to be a late life problem is now showing up in kids below the age of 12. Scho...

It's described as an epidemic in many Manitoba communities, but provincial health officials don't have an accurate way to track how many people are diagnosed with diabetes, Manitoba Liberal Leader Dr. Jon Gerrard said. The government recognizes on its website it's an epidemic, but (speaking) as a physician, it's not being treated as an epidemic," Gerrard said. The Canadian Diabetes Association recently said provincial statistics from 2006 show about 76,000 Manitobans have diabetes -- twice as many as 1989. Researchers estimate close to 10 per cent of Manitobans have diabetes, higher than the national average of eight per cent, and as many as 23,000 people don't know it. Most of the jump is attributed to a rise in Type 2 diabetes in First Nations communities due to unhealthy eating habi...
