Why are we discussing type 2 diabetes? Because the condition is so closely associated with being overweight and obese. And because so many of those who walk into our clinics searching for help on weight loss are also affected in some way by type 2 diabetes (even sometimes when they are unaware they have the condition or that they are in a prediabetic state).

The number of people with type 2 diabetes has doubled globally over the past 30 years. It’s no coincidence that this has happened at the same time as a dramatic increase in the number of people overweight and obese. A recent study published in The Lancet showed that, over the past 33 years, worldwide overweight and obesity rates among adults have increased by 27.5%, while such rates among children and adolescents have increased by a shocking 47.1%. This does not bode well for our future health.
