Losing weight type 2 diabetes
It is the number one chronic public health problem, type 2 diabetes. More than a million people suffer from this disease. And these are not just the elderly.
Type 2 diabetes is also often diagnosed in young people
What is going on in the Netherlands? More and more people are developing type 2 diabetes.. Type 2 diabetes is caused by your body responding less effectively to insulin. This is called insulin resistance. As a result, too much sugar remains in your blood. This causes very unpleasant health problems. More and more young people are developing this disease. The main cause is an unhealthy lifestyle.
An unhealthy lifestyle is the main cause
What exactly is an unhealthy lifestyle? It is exercising too little, eating too much, and experiencing too much stress. We are getting busier and busier. Social media, Netflix—the bar is set high for how we manage our time. As a result, some experience loneliness as stress and no longer find the time to exercise. Slowly but surely, we are getting heavier and heavier, and diabetes is lurking. How can we break this cycle?
