UNITED KINGDOM
United Kingdom is in another crisis called Diabetes, which has soared about 60% in a decade, warns Medical experts.
3.3
million people are suffering in one or another form of Diabetes compared to 2.1
million in the year 2005. This, if not controlled will lead to amputation plus
blindness, which will strain the vast human resource. 90% of the Diabetes cases
are type 2, which is directly linked with diet and obesity.
Type
1 though developed in early childhood will be unable to produce insulin hormone
which controls the blood sugar.
Dr. Joan of St. John in North-West London says that conditions of Diabetes are widespread incredibly and is considered to be highest in the country. This will lead to loss of vision, damage to organs and damage to nerves. Apart from that it will lead to foot amputations every week.
Nerve
damage can cause ache which will be gnawing constantly in foot and legs and
there is no major medicine for this. Now if you look at the NHS drugs bill
nearly 10% are considered to be used for Diabetes medicine. About UK Pound 869
million is spent on insulin, metformin, and other Diabetic medicine which
accounted to just 6.6% of the current budget.
The
main reason for this diabetic is the lifestyle.
