Description
Experts now predict that more than one-third of American children born in 2000 will develop diabetes in their lifetime.
Written by one of the world' leading authorities on the link between
obesity and diabetes, this passionate, frightening-but ultimately
hopeful-book points the way to solutions. To enter Dr. Francine
Kaufman's clinic is to see the future of America: a 220-pound
twelve-year-old boy…a 267-pound thirteen-year-old girl..their concerned
but equally overweight parents…the human faces and human suffering
behind the epidemic of type 2 diabetes that threatens to overwhelm our
health care system.
Detailing the tools to change at every level-from families to school
systems to government-and reporting on innovative programs that are
already making a difference, Diabesity offers a compelling action plan for winning this battle.
