People of many different races, cultures and religious persuasions are susceptible to contracting the disease. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), diabetes is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Diabetes affects an increasing proportion of people worldwide, particularly in emerging countries with the highest prevalence rate. The condition is ongoing, and as a result, health departments all across the world need to take immediate action. The intervention needs to begin at the individual level, with people changing their lifestyles to consume a healthy diet and participate in active pursuits. The problem manifests itself when the body cannot dissolve additional glucose in the cells and produce energy from it. When the condition is not under control, it causes harm to the many organs throughout the body.
