Diabetes Monitor The Diabetes Monitor section, published in cooperation with the medical experts of the American Diabetes Association, presents a wealth of new information for readers who may be at risk for diabetes, or whose families may already be affected by the nation's fifth leading cause of death by disease. For an estimated 17 million Americans that have diabetes (with at least one-third of whom don't even know they have it), it's imperative to continue delivering the most recent developments in diabetes research. The past few months have, in fact, brought several stunning developments: from recognizing the disease in its earliest stages and teaching people how to prevent prediabetes from ever developing into full-blown diabetes, to the unfortunate rise in type 2 diabetes in children; plus a look at the mounting alternatives to insulin shots and better methods for detecting the onset of heart disease and diabetes in people who may not show any symptoms.
