YOU CAN INHERIT IT, YOU CAN BE BORN WITH IT, YOU CAN GET IT DURING PREGNANCY, YOU CAN DEVELOP IT FROM THE WAY YOU LIVE....SO IS THERE ANY WAY TO BE SAFE AGAINST DIABETES?

210,000 people under the age of 20 years old, have one type of diabetes or another.  1 in every 400 children has juvenile diabetes.  18 million people between the ages of 20-60 have diabetes.  This is 9% of the population in this age group.  8.6 million in the age group of 40-60 have diabetes.  This is the reason I created this website.  This is a small part that I could do to try to help make a difference in people's lives.  This website has the purpose of educating those who do not have diabetes and helping people with diabetes cope with the situation with recipes and daily life activities.
