Warning: Diabetes is hidden, growing disease
Quad City Times, IA -
"Your readers should be aware that there are 2 differnt kinds of diabetes. Type 2 is what many older overweight people get and can be helped by lifestyle changes as with the lady in your article. Type 1 is juvenile diabetes and it is the more extreme disease that comes on in innocent babies, children and young people in the vast majority of cases. Type 1 diabetics did not bring it on themselves by being overweight they just got it being unlucky although it may be triggered by a virus which is being studied. Stay healthy and you will likely avoid getting type 2 diabetes, but if you get a cold virus you or your child can get type 1 , what used to be called Juvenile diabetes."

Study: Mediterranean Diet Helps Keep You Slim
WKRC 12, Cincinnati -
If you want to lower the odds you'll be overweight, eat more pasta! How's that for a great study? We stopped by the Department of Gastrointestinal and Liver Diseases at the University of Cincinnati to tell you a little bit more about it. What researchers did is they took a closer look at those who eat the Mediterranean Diet. They found that those who eat this way are 50% less likely to be obese or overweight compared to those who eat the traditional American Diet. Those who follow this diet eat four to six servings of fruit, two to three servings of vegetables and three to five servings of grains every day. They also get four to six servings of fish or chicken each week, and they limit red meat and sweets to about once a week. The good news is you don't have to sweat the fat! You just need to eat olive oil instead of butter or lard. How's that for a diet that sounds pretty tasty?
