DIABETES AMONG CHILDREN DIABETES AMONG ADULTS
The epidemics of obesity and the low level of physical activity among young people, as well as exposure to diabetes in utero, may be major contributors to the increase in type 2 diabetes during childhood and adolescence.
The prevalence of diabetes among adults has
increased significantly from 5.1% in 1988-1994
to 6.5% in 1999-2002 in the United States.1
