| Diabetes is a major source of misery for an estimated sixteen million Americans. It is a leading cause of death in the U.S.—more than 400,000 Americans died from it last year. Compared to average adults, diabetics are two to four times more likely to die from heart disease. Diabetics also suffer from significantly higher rates of kidney disease, stroke, eye ailments (diabetes is the leading cause of new cases of blindness among adults), nerve disease, slow wound healing, and poor circulation requiring amputation of limbs. Approximately 90 percent of all cases of diabetes are adult-onset, also known as Type II or non-insulin-dependent diabetes. Adult-onset diabetes occurs most commonly after age forty, when for various reasons the body becomes less able to use circulating sugar (blood glucose) for energy. Scientists have developed a number of drugs for use with or without injected insulin, the hormone normally secreted by the pancreas that helps glucose get absorbed into cells, to help control adult-onset diabetes. Anti-diabetes agents may cause adverse side effects, however, including actually increasing the risk of death from heart disease. | |||||||||||
