Diabetes in Children: A Growing Epidemic

Just as in adults with type 2 diabetes, it is common for children to be resistant

to insulin and have high blood pressure, high cholesterol and high triglyceride levels.

This puts the child at an increased risk of heart disease and other diabetes complications early in life. Children with type 2 diabetes may need to take oral medication, insulin or both to control the disease. Contact your pediatrician if you think your child may be at risk for diabetes.
