The diabetes epidemic obesity a major factor

997 to 2003, when diabetes incidence increased by 41%, incident cases did not become remarkably healthier or younger, which one might have expected if the increased incidence were largely the product of improved diabetes detection.

The authors conclude, "Between 1997 and 2003, the incidence of diagnosed diabetes among U.S. adults increased at a rapid rate. This increase was not accompanied by large improvements in the health status of incident cases. The presented data suggest that obesity is a major factor in increasing incidence and that incident cases of diabetes are becoming more obese. Recent clinical trials have found that lifestyle changes that include moderate weight loss and exercise can prevent or delay the onset of diabetes among high-risk adults. The development and delivery of lifestyle interventions to people at risk for diabetes are needed to halt the increasing incidence of diabetes."
