According to studies conducted in the recent past, 1 of 12 adults suffer from diabetes in Sri Lanka and childhood diabetes is on the rise, the main cause for the rise in numbers are static and unhealthy lifestyles maintained by individuals. The good news is that the large majority of type 2 diabetes is preventable, simply by adopting a healthy lifestyle.
