• 94: Prediabetes & Type 2 Diabetes in Youths

  Type 2 diabetes used to be called “adult-onset diabetes.” Not anymore. Today, one in three American teens has prediabetes, and diagnoses of type 2 diabetes are climbing rapidly in youths — high schoolers, young adults in their twenties and thirties, and even in children. When diabetes strikes young, it doesn’t just start earlier, it progresses faster, becomes more aggressive, and leads to serious complications much sooner.In this episode, Dr. Jedha unpacks the shocking new statistics from the CDC and global research, explores why this epidemic is accelerating among young people, and reveals what the latest studies tell us about their heightened risks, from early blood vessel damage to kidney, eye, and heart complications appearing in their twenties. You’ll also hear about the debate over medications in youth, and most importantly, the powerful role of prevention, lifestyle, and family support.If you’re a parent, grandparent, teacher, or simply someone concerned about the health of the next generation, this conversation will open your eyes. It’s not just a problem for the future, it’s happening now. Early action works and together we can help turn the tide!For show notes and resources, please visit: https://Type2DiabetesTalk.comTo share your questions and suggestions, leave us a voice message or email at: https://Type2DiabetesTalk.com/messageExplore our proven programs and services, visit: https://Type2DiabetesTalk.com/programsSubscribe to our free weekly newsletter for podcast updates, valuable nutrition tips and more: https://Type2DiabetesTalk.com/subscribe
