i think u also need to know that type 1 diabetics have no control over wether or not they have diabetes, while u can control it, some people may not realize they have type 1 (which is when your pancreas stops producing insulin). it took at least three months before my doctors realized i had the auto-immune disease, and i was lucky to not have entered a diabetic coma or become very very sick because of diabetic ketoacidosis. so, take it from me, type 1 diabetics will become diabetic no matter diet or exercise, and could very well become sick or die from this disease.

Boy, are you ignorant. First of all, not all diabetes is Type 2, related to diet and exercise--a fair number of people with diabetes have Type 1 diabetes or a condition called Type 1.5, which have NOTHING to do with what they eat or how much they exercise. It's autoimmune and is likely related to a combination of genetics, viruses, and possibly environmental issues like vitamin D levels. Second, diet and exercise aren't even the complete picture for Type 2 diabetes, because there are plenty of people who eat poorly and get no exercise who DON'T get diabetes, and others who eat a balanced diet and get plentiful exercise who DO. Are you going to hold those who do responsible for their genetic makeup, too? And finally, no matter how careful a person with diabetes is about managing the disease, lows and highs happen, and so does ketoacidosis. They are life-threatening events sometimes. THAT is why diabetes is dangerous, never mind the long-term complications. If you have diabetes, you had better learn a bit more about what you're facing than what you've shown here, because you'll be in deep doo-doo very soon if you don't. And if you don't have diabetes and are just spouting off about something you clearly know nothing about, take it somewhere else. Those of us who deal with this disease every day have better things to do than correct ignorant babbling.

Well, perhaps YOU can believe this, it's from the most recent assessment made jointly by the major diabetes authorities of the US, UK, and Canada, it’s called the National Diabetes Fact Sheet, 2007.

Adults with diabetes have heart disease death rates about 2 to 4 times higher than non-diabetics.
The risk for stroke is 2 to 4 times higher in diabetics.
Diabetes is the leading cause in new cases of blindness among adults 20 years and older.
Diabetes is the leading cause of kidney failure.
Diabetics suffered more than 60 % of all amputations (not including accident victims).
Diabetes is the 7th leading cause of death in the U.S. and diabetes contributed to 233,619 deaths in 2005, the latest year for which data was available.
