Dr. Michael Farkouh of Mt. Sinai School of Medicine, is a specialist in the effects of diabetes on the cardiovascular system.
According to Dr. Farkouh research studies state that there is an epidemic of diabetes in North America. The epidemic is due to the lack of exercise, the foods that we consume and our lifestyles and stress.
Our schools are cutting back on the physical education and the halls are lined with pop and candy machines, which also adds to the epidemic.
Parent’s are going through the drive up and getting dinner on their way home from work, which is usually loaded with fats. The parents will go through the same window grabbing a coffee loaded with caffeine, muffin or something worse for breakfast in a rush to get to work.
These are just a few of the things that are causing diabetes and heart failure in young adults and children to be at an epidemic level.
