WHy is Diabetes so out of control ? So many people diagonsed every day ? We need a Cure?

I hear of so many young people beign diagosed with type 1 diabetes
Im sorry but this does suck .. No your life is not over , but with the daily injections , diet controll , can you even go out for a slice of pizza
with your friends .. ?? Type 2 I understand more ,I am one , and being
over weight and not enough activity , I know the reason , and amworking on it . Type 1 actaully makes me mad , stupid huh?
Children teengagers diagnoed with this disease is not only painful because of injections , but are limited on so many foods that as a
youg person enjoyed , I don’t remember going to school with anyone
that had diabetes , Please tell me what , and how do you handle this
during the day at school ..
My heart goes out to each and every one of you that deal with this
on a daily basis .. We need a cure for this ! And hopefully soon

I hope for a cure as well. I believe that the problem is too many convenience foods i am talking frozen foods they are so loaded with chemicals and fat and salt, eating out too much, this day and age kids are not active because they are in playing video games and not going out and playing.

When I was a kid this wasn’t a problem either, but Mom or Dad cooked, they cooked real food not the frozen foods, eating out was a treat, we played outside, we didn’t have video games and we didn’t have computers, and a lot of times moms didn’t have to work so we weren’t latch key kids that came home and threw something in the microwave. Mom had something good waiting for us usually a peanut butter sandwich and milk or an apple.
Today’s parents seem to be too busy to cook good meals and today’s kids are too busy with the computers and video games and have no interest in riding bikes or whatever the case may be. What happened to tag and hide and go seek? Those were games that encouraged excercise.
