Diabetes warning
Experts have warned that Britain is sleep-walking into a major diabetes crisis with millions of Britons unaware they are at risk from the life-threatening illness. Diabetes UK said it expects the number of people to be affected by diabetes to reach 6.25m by 2035, up from nearly 4m today. Barbara Young, chief executive of Diabetes UK, commented: "If the current rate of increase continues, the number of people with diabetes is expected to rise by 700,000 by the end of the decade, with Type 2 accounting for most of this rise. This would be a health disaster, an increase unsustainable for the NHS."
