尼尔羊肉:1型糖尿病在历史上被称为青少年糖尿病,因为它经常罢工,儿童和年轻的成年人。描述变化是有原因的。我们开始看到更多的人在20年代和30年代发展1型糖尿病的症状,我们看到越来越多的孩子患上2型糖尿病,可能引发部分儿童肥胖率的上升。

罗恩POTEAT:我是罗恩POTEAT。我区域总裁地区银行在阿拉巴马州北部,和我是一个2型糖尿病。大约一年前,由于常规的物理,我的医生说,“嘿,进来。我想和你谈谈。”And he said, "You've got it." And I said, "What have I got?" He said, "Well, you're type 2 diabetic," which was not a complete shock to me, because I have a family history. And so my grandmother, my mother, and now I kind of crossed that threshold. And so it was a sobering moment for me to say, "Okay, I've kind of crossed over into--the--to--to this situation. And so it's made some pretty profound changes for me in the way I eat and the way I exercise and the choices that I make on a daily basis to help me manage through this. And--and so--but the by-product of those changed choices are as--I'm healthier, my weight has gone down, my blood sugar is under that threshold now. And it's--so it's something that I intend on managing going forward. It's not something that I don't think I can sustain. It's--it's a different way of life for me.

尼尔羊肉:1型和2型糖尿病有明显的遗传和环境危险因素。有许多基因和环境因素。我们有一个更好的处理在1型糖尿病的遗传学,但仍有缺失的部分。和我们没有一个强大的处理环境因素。有许多的纵向研究。这意味着我们开始和一群病人当他们的新生儿,我们跟随他们10年或15年,确定谁发展糖尿病1型糖尿病的情况。我们看他们已经接触到的所有东西,这是最好的类型的研究给我们的感觉是什么真正的环境风险。这些已经持续了数年之久,我想在接下来的三到五年内我们会得到一些真正的答案关于环境。
