The date of recording this podcast is the 14th November 2014, and today is World Diabetes Day so I thought it was appropriate that we cover the topic of diabetes today, which is something so very important and I don’t believe we’ve talked about it before here on the GFE podcast. But this is not just a podcast for people who have diabetes, this is a podcast for everyone because diabetes is something we all need to know more about and you’ll be doing yourself a favour if you listen to this podcast and become more informed about it. I think diabetes is something that most of us have heard of by now and the reason for this is that we have a rapidly increasing rate of people getting it. In fact the numbers are quite disturbing. Here in Australia it’s estimated that one person every 5 minutes is being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and you can assume that this rate is similar in the US, UK and other western countries. In Australia we have around 1 million people already diagnosed, with an estimated 2 million people having pre-diabetes, and a large percentage of the population undiagnosed. It’s also estimated that in the next 15 years that number is going to more than triple, so that’s a pretty disturbing thing when we start crunching some numbers. I also believe that we don’t quite understand or comprehend the high risk involved in getting type 2 diabetes. So in today’s podcast I’d like to share some information about type 2 diabetes, along with how we can prevent it, just how much we can do if we have something like insulin resistance and pre-diabetes, and some other great stuff. So let’s start at the beginning by explain what the difference is between the different types of diabetes. Type 1 diabetes has always been called type 1 but there used to be other names for type 2 diabetes. For a long time it was called adult onset diabetes, but that had to be changed because type 2 diabetes is no longer contained to the adult population. So we won’t get you confused, the only thing you need to know now is that there are just two types, type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Type 1 diabetes is a genetic condition that can get triggered by various environmental factors and this is an important difference between the two. What happens is an autoimmune response occurs that leads to the destruction of pancreatic islets, that’s the cells in the pancreas, and with type 1 diabetes there is a complete failure of insulin production. The onset of type 1 diabetes often occurs for people during childhood but it can occur later in life too, though it’s not as common. For all type 1 diabetes sufferers the destruction of the cells in the pancreas results in the need for insulin replacement therapy because the pancreas simply can’t produce any insulin. Diet and lifestyle are still very important to a person with type 1 diabetes but they can’t cure themselves of the disease because it is an autoimmune condition. Type 2 diabetes can have a strong genetic predisposition too, so if there is a history in your family, you could be more prone to getting it too. However for most people, type 2 diabetes is predominantly a result of <a href="http://goodfoodeating.org/3591/diabetes-diet/">unhealthy diet</a>, weight gain, physical inactivity, and environment.
