Proverbs 23:1, 20-21
When you sit to dine with a ruler, note well what is before you, and put a knife to your throat if you are given to gluttony…Do not join those who drink too much wine or gorge themselves on meat, for drunkards and gluttons become poor, and drowsiness clothes them in rags.
I went to the doctor yesterday and he said because of my family history, I will most likely get adult-onset or Type 2 diabetes. My family does struggle with weight management. But I also realize Type 2 diabetes and other weight related illnesses are avoidable by following the guidance in these Proverbs. Type 2 diabetes is avoidable, let’s put an end to it.
Quick Facts on Type 2 diabetes:
• At least 90% of patients with diabetes have type 2 diabetes.
• Type 2 diabetes is typically recognized in adulthood, usually after age 45 years.
• Type 2 diabetes is usually controlled with diet, weight loss, exercise, and oral medications. More than half of all people with type 2 diabetes require insulin to control their blood sugar levels at some point in the course of their illness.
