Today's Children Face Poor Health as Adults
The Centers for Disease Control announced in October that by 2050, up to one-third of all adults will have diabetes. That’s our teenagers when they hit middle age. Diabetes is the leading cause of blindness and medical amputations – usually feet or legs, and is a major contributor to heart attack, stroke, and kidney failure. Diabetes is largely preventable by eating less sugar, limiting fast food, banning high fructose corn syrup from the diet, eating plenty of fresh natural foods, and exercising at least 30 minutes a day.
